Developing, Modelling and Assessing Second Languages


Add your own review!

Overview

This edited volume brings together the work of a number of researchers working in the framework of Processability Theory (PT), a psycholinguistic theory of second language acquisition (SLA) (Pienemann 1998; 2005). The aim of the volume is two-fold: It engages with current issues in both theory development and theory application and focuses on theoretical developments within the framework of PT as well as issues related to second language teaching and assessment. In coordinating approaches to addressing both theoretical and applied aspects of SLA, this volume aims at bridging the gap between theory and practice. It also reflects the richness of debate within the field of PT-based research. The volume is intended for postgraduate students, SLA researchers as well as language teachers. As of January 2019, this e-book is freely available, thanks to the support of libraries working with Knowledge Unlatched.

Reviews

Kessler et al. have accomplished their objective to bring together theory development and theory application within the framework of PT. Along with insightful implications for L2 teaching and assessment, this bridging of theory and practice is one of the many hallmarks of their volume that will catch the attention of readers interested in PT-based research. The book makes a valuable contribution to L2 acquisition and PT research and should be on the 'reading wish list' of researchers, language teachers, graduate students, and anyone interested in psycholinguistic approaches to L2 acquisition. -- John W. Schwieter, Wilfrid Laurier University, in Applied Linguistics 38(5): 771-774
