Table of ContentsReviewsVan Compernolle's research presents a theoretically motivated and evidence-based instructional framework for mediating the development of pragmatic ability in language learners. He brings together important pedagogical applications of sociocultural theory, e.g. dynamic assessment, concept-based instruction, and the use of strategic interaction scenarios as an instruction tool. As such, the book makes a significant contribution to the sociocultural literature and provides a new direction for the theory and practice of developing pragmatic variation in language learners. Richard Donato, University of Pittsburgh, USA This work is the first book-length proposal to reconceptualize instructional pragmatics from the perspective of Vygotskian Sociocultural Theory. Based on a cogent reconceptualization of 'appropriateness', the book offers a coherent approach to sociopragmatic and pragmalinguistic competencies as learning targets and to the instructional practices through which these competencies can effectively be developed and assessed in language instruction. With its profound theoretical grounding and empirical rigor, van Compernolle's book significantly advances scholarship on the instructed development of second language pragmatics.
