Written by experts in the field, this book explains the principles
of effective vocabulary instruction for the modern language
classroom. While many language classrooms rely on practices which
can be outdated, idiosyncratic or ill-advised, this book overviews
the research and background necessary to successfully integrate
vocabulary instruction into the curriculum in a systematic way.
Starting with the common gaps in vocabulary instruction, Milton and
Hopwood demonstrate how students' development of a large,
communicative lexicon, with an understanding of word structure and
collocations, is an essential component of language instruction.
The book addresses goal setting, curriculum design, word selection,
how words are learned, learning in and outside of the classroom and
more. It also addresses common myths about teaching vocabulary in
the United Kingdom and around the world. This comprehensive text
fills an important gap in the literature and is ideal for
undergraduate and postgraduate courses in world language/foreign
language methods and language methods courses.
