Conversation Analysis and Second Language Pedagogy (eBook, ePUB)

A Guide for ESL/EFL Teachers

Beschreibung

Now in its second edition, this volume offers a strong synthesis of classic and current work in conversation analysis (CA), usefully encapsulated in a model of interactional practices that comprise interactional competence. Through this synthesis, Wong and Waring demonstrate how CA findings can help to increase language teachers' awareness of the spoken language and suggest ways of applying that knowledge to teaching second language interaction skills.

The Second Edition features:

• Substantial updates that include new findings on interactional practices
• Reconceptualized, reorganized, and revised content for greater accuracy, clarity, and readability
• Expanded key concepts glossary at the end of each chapter
• New tasks with more transcripts of actual talk
• New authors' stories

The book is geared towards current and prospective second or foreign language teachers, material developers, and other language professionals, and assumes neither background knowledge of conversation analysis nor its connection to second language teaching. It also serves as a handy reference for those interested in key CA findings on social interaction.

Rezensionen

"[T]his newly updated second edition of Conversation analysis and second language pedagogy: A guide for ESL/EFL teachers is an immensely practical and easy-to-use resource for language teachers looking to incorporate the findings of conversation analysis (CA) into their pedagogical practice.... In short, this book sets out to be a practical guide for ESL/EFL teachers who are interested in using CA to inform their teaching practices and it succeeds emphatically in achieving this goal. The authors make an important and compelling contribution to encouraging a shift towards an empirically based interactionist perspective in L2 pedagogy."
