Routledge Applied Linguistics is a series of comprehensive
textbooks, providing students and researchers with the support they
need for advanced study in the core areas of English language and
Applied Linguistics.Each book in the series guides readers through
three main sections, enabling them to explore and develop major
themes within the discipline. Section A, Introduction, establishes
the key terms and concepts and extends readers' techniques of
analysis through practical application. Section B, Extension,
brings together influential articles, sets them in context, and
discusses their contribution to the field. Section C, Exploration,
builds on knowledge gained in the first two sections, setting
thoughtful tasks around further illustrative material. This enables
readers to engage more actively with the subject matter and
encourages them to develop their own research responses. Throughout
the book, topics are revisited, extended, interwoven and
deconstructed, with the reader's understanding strengthened by
tasks and follow-up questions. Research Methods for Applied
Language Studies: Provides an advanced introduction to quantitative
and qualitative research methods used in second and foreign
language learning, teaching and assessment Takes readers step by
step through the processes of research, from formulating research
questions to writing up a dissertation or report. Employs a wide
variety of carefully structured tasks and discussion points to
guide the reader through the key themes, frameworks and procedures
of applied language research, including ethnography, conversation
analysis and quasi-experimental designs. Engages students in
readings and tasks on articles from leading names in the field,
including Alison Mackey, Roy Lyster, Angela Creese, Junko Mori, Rod
Ellis and Diane Larsen-Freeman. Is supported by a Companion
Website, including data sets for practice and guides to writing a
proposal, making recordings, conducting interviews, producing
questionnaires and organising a dissertation. Written by
experienced teachers and researchers in the field, Research Methods
