Das Thema Anglizismen wird hier aus einer neuen, kognitiven Perspektive angegangen. Die Studie grundet auf der These, dass die Bedeutung eines sprachlichen Ausdrucks nicht per se gegeben ist, sondern von der Kognition der Sprecher in Abhangigkeit von kulturellen und sozialen Faktoren sowie vom Sprachgebrauch konstruiert wird. Anhand einer Korpusanalyse und einer Informantenbefragung wird die kognitive Verarbeitung von Anglizismen erforscht. Die Untersuchung weist nach, dass Entlehnungsprozesse mit bedeutsamen semantischen Verschiebungen verbunden sind und dass Gebrauch und Bedeutung der Entlehnungen abhangig sind von der Kommunikationssituation. Die Ergebnisse zeigen ausserdem, dass Anglizismen fur Darstellung und Wahrnehmung der sozialen Identitat der Sprecher eine wesentliche Rolle spielen.

Building on Michael Graves's bestseller, The Vocabulary Book, this new resource offers a comprehensive plan for vocabulary instruction that K-12 teachers can use with English language learners. It is broad enough to include instruction for students who are just beginning to build their English vocabularies, as well as for students whose English vocabularies are approaching those of native speakers. The authors describe a four-pronged program that follows these key components: providing rich and varied language experiences; teaching individual words; teaching word learning strategies; and fostering word consciousness. This user-friendly book integrates up-to-date research on best practices into each chapter and includes vignettes, classroom activities, sample lessons, a list of children's literature, and more.

This book presents a thorough examination of the development, evolution, and current realities of educating emergent bilinguals in U.S. classrooms. The text begins by showing how the authors evolved from monolingual language educators to translanguaging educators and ends with concrete takeaways for successfully using an inclusive translanguaging approach in different education settings.

From expert authors, this book guides educators to conduct assessments that inform daily instruction and identify the assets that emergent bilinguals bring to the classroom. Effective practices are reviewed for screening, assessment, and progress monitoring in the areas of oral language, beginning reading skills, vocabulary and comprehension in the content areas, and writing. The book also addresses how to establish schoolwide systems of support that incorporate family and community engagement. Packed with practical ideas and vignettes, the book focuses on grades K-6, but also will be useful to middle and high school teachers. Appendices include reproducible forms that can be downloaded and printed in a convenient 8 1/2" x 11" size.

This title introduces core concepts in teaching methods and approaches. This textbook shows you how to link research to practice in TESOL methodology. Covering core topics from vocabulary and grammar to teaching, writing, speaking and listening, it emphasises how current interpretations have impacted on the language classroom worldwide. It investigates the meaning of 'methods' and 'methodology' and the importance of these for the teacher, as well as the underlying assumptions and beliefs teachers bring to bear in their practice. By introducing you to language teaching approaches, you will explore the way these are influenced by developments in our understanding of language, learning technologies, learners, and their socio-cultural world. Three main areas in TESOL methods are covered: the impact of learner needs, context and culture on language, learning and teaching approaches; knowledge of language and its impact on methods, from the word to whole texts; and multiple literacies and competences for the modern world, including academic literacy and web literacy, socio-cultural and intercultural competence. It also discusses the impact on teacher choices and methods of World Englishes, approaches to grammar, and learner development. It is written specifically for those studying TESOL teaching. Each chapter illustrates core principles in practice using case studies of English teaching worldwide. Guided tasks, including article critique, case study analysis, and classroom research, prepare students to engage critically with research literature. It is the first book to teach methods and practice in a global context.

Do you want to learn more about the evidence, or lack of evidence, supporting common teaching strategies and procedures? An Introduction to Evidence-Based Teaching in English Language Learning compiles the evidence in one place for you, rather than scattered across a variety of sources: online blogs, conference reports and disparate journal papers. This practical and accessible resource begins by identifying what 'evidence-based teaching' is. It then outlines the key strategies, briefly describing how and why they are supported by evidence. Finally, it moves on to show the practical application of these strategies in ELT with concrete examples and activities. By using the book, teachers, teacher trainers and educators will: have developed a greater understanding of what evidence-based teaching is and have the tools to evaluate teaching practices; know where to find research to back up evidence-based practice; understand the importance of evidence for how the brain works and how this knowledge helps to combat erroneous beliefs about teaching and learning; have increased their knowledge of the importance of prior knowledge to teaching and learning, and the evidence for this; understand how the memory works as well as cognitive load theory, and the evidence for this;have deepened their understanding of evidence-based teaching strategies and interventions; be able to contrast evidence-based ideas and practices with other teaching interventions not supported by research; have learned how to critically apply evidence-informed ideas and understand ideas and practices that are not supported by evidence; be able to evaluate strategies and interventions in the ELT classroom that have evidence to support or refute them. This book is designed to be a supplement to any initial or in-service teacher education course as well as for teachers at any level who are interested in evidence-based teaching in English Language classes. You should read alongside core teacher training texts, in order to be able to examine common teaching practices.
