"Routledge Applied Linguistics" is a series of comprehensive
resource books, 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.
"Second Language Acquisition":
* introduces the key areas in the field, including:
multilingualism, the role of teaching, the mental processing of
multiple languages, and patterns of growth and decline
*explores the key theories and debates and elucidates areas of
controversy
*gathers together influential readings from key names in the
discipline, including: Vivian Cook, William E. Dunn and James P.
Lantolf, S.P. Corder, and Nina Spada and Patsy Lightbown.
Written by experienced teachers and researchers in the field,
"Second Language Acquisition" is an essential resource for students
and researchers of appliedlinguistics.

This book honours the contribution of Marjolijn Verspoor to the
development and implementation of dynamic usage-based (DUB)
approaches in second language (L2) research and pedagogy. With
chapters written by renowned experts in the field, the book
addresses the dynamics of language, language learning and language
teaching from a usage-based perspective. The book contains both
theory and empirical work: the initial theoretical chapters present
cutting-edge thinking in relation to both the scope of DUB theory
and its applications, providing conceptual perspectives from
cognitive grammar and linguistics, thinking-for-speaking (TFS), and
Complex Dynamic Systems Theory (CDST) approaches, united by their
shared underpinnings of language as a dynamic system of
conventionalized routines. The second half of the volume showcases
state-of-the-art methodologies to study dynamic trajectories of
language learning, empirical investigations into the
above-mentioned theoretical concepts, and innovative classroom
implementations of DUB language pedagogy.

Assuming no prior knowledge, this text provides a concise,
practical and accessible introduction to using, analysing and
interpreting statistics and methodologies in empirical work using R
or JASP. It takes an activity-based approach, in which students are
first stimulated to consider a problem or question and find their
own solution before the conventional way of solving that problem or
question is introduced. 'How To' guides on R and JASP, which take
students step-by-step through statistical analyses and practical
assignments, are available on the book's companion website. This
book will be an invaluable resource for undergraduate and
postgraduate students of applied linguistics. New to this Edition:
- Now focuses on R and JASP, two increasingly popular open source
softwares used by linguists - 'How To' guides to help students
strengthen their understanding and apply what they have learnt
available on a companion site - Contains more comprehensive
coverage of effect sizes, basic methods, regression theory,
relationship studies and non-parametric tests Accompanying online
resources for this title can be found at
bloomsburyonlineresources.com/essential-statistics-for-applied-linguistics.
These resources are designed to support teaching and learning when
using this textbook and are available at no extra cost.
