This book evaluates a project where formal classroom learning of a
second language was supplemented with informal, natural
interactions with older native speakers of the target language,
delivering a number of pedagogical and societal benefits. The
authors introduce a model of intergenerational, intercultural
encounters which aims to promote the use of community language
resources; enrich the experiences of young learners; foster greater
understanding between generations; break down cultural stereotypes;
encourage appreciation of different cultures and enhance the
quality of life and community engagement of older people with a
bi/multilingual background. It draws on theories of language
acquisition, discourse analysis and psychosocial perspectives to
propose a model of language learning for students that can be used
for any language or locality. It is therefore an essential resource
for graduate students, researchers and language teachers as well as
for education, aged and youth care policy makers, practitioners and
community services workers who are interested in innovative
language pedagogy.
