Routledge Introductions to Applied Linguistics is a series of
introductory level textbooks covering the core topics in Applied
Linguistics, primarily designed for those beginning postgraduate
studies or taking an introductory MA course, as well as advanced
undergraduates. Titles in the series are also ideal for language
professionals returning to academic study. The books take an
innovative 'practice to theory' approach, with a 'back-to-front'
structure. This leads the reader from real-world problems and
issues, through a discussion of intervention and how to engage with
these concerns, before finally relating these practical issues to
theoretical foundations. Exploring Digital Communication aims to
discuss real-world issues pertaining to digital communication, and
to explore how linguistic research addresses these challenges. The
text is divided into three sections (Problems and practices;
Interventions; and Theory), each of which is further divided into
two subsections which reflect linguistic issues relating to digital
communication. The author seeks to demystify any perceived divide
between online and offline communication, arguing that issues
raised in relation to digital communication throw light on language
use and practices in general, and thus linguistic interventions in
this area have implications not only for users of digital
communication but for linguists' general understanding of language
and society. Including relevant research examples, tasks and a
glossary, this textbook is an invaluable resource for postgraduate
and upper undergraduate students taking New Media or Communication
Studies modules within Applied Linguistics and English Language
courses.
