Book excerpt: Learning a new language can be very demanding, but it can also be good fun, and in between the hard work of language acquisition there are opportunities for breaks from the regular classroom routine where what has been learned is put to rewarding and practical use. Games Language People Play provides teachers with a variety of language games to make the teaching and learning of a new language an occasion for enjoyable competitiveness. There are 110 games in all, ranging in level from Beginners to Advanced. Each game carries an indication of the language skill or combination of skills being employed -- reading, writing, listening, speaking -- and the optimal group size, from as few as 10 students to games suitable for classes of unlimited size. The game's instructional objective -- for example, vocabulary expansion -- the materials needed, a full description and additional suggestions are all provided, with all that remains being for you and your class to enjoy the wonderfully creative ideas that Jerry Steinberg has put into book form for you. Originally published more than 20 years ago, Games Language People Play has continued to delight teachers and students of English every year since then.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a timely and valuable resource to explore second language vocabulary learning outside the formal language learning classroom. Rapidly evolving technology and the increasing impact of the global village have resulted in dramatic changes to and increased occasions for second language vocabulary learning. This book offers new and valuable insights into the radically different opportunities both the physical and digital wild provide for language learners to increase their vocabulary knowledge. Practical advice is also given on how second language teachers can integrate vocabulary learning in the wild into their formal classroom instruction. This collection of cutting-edge studies by international experts working within the fields of second language teaching and learning, second language acquisition, applied linguistics, informal language learning, and technology enhanced learning offers an essential resource for language teachers and researchers. The internet is a powerful source of incidental language learning, but this is only part of language learning in the wild. This excellent book shows the range of opportunities available for learning another language outside the classroom in this much neglected research area. --Paul Nation, Emeritus Professor, Victoria University of Wellington

This book was released on 2021-12-07 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Listening and Spoken Language Therapy for Children With Hearing Loss: A Practical Auditory-Based Guide is a well-organized and practical textbook based on a proven spoken language, speech, and listening model for teaching children with hearing loss. Supported by decades of research and experience, the stage-based model is presented with clear steps for intervention. Written in easy-to-understand language, this textbook is accessible to university students who are new to the field of hearing loss, as well as to new and experienced professionals. It is a highly applicable tool for providing auditory-based therapy which supports professionals to empower parents and caregivers. The stages emphasized in this textbook are developmental in nature, starting with the prelinguistic level and ending with advanced communication. Unlike the traditional age approach, this unique system can address any child regardless of age intervention. Operating based on the understanding that language is acquired through meaningful social interaction, the “stages not ages” system can be used for late starters, English learners, and children with additional disabilities. Key Features: * A color-coding system for the model and a consistent presentation of content and tables provide clarity and a streamlined experience * A comprehensive case study for each stage puts the approach into context * Easy-to-use resources, in the form of tables and handouts for parents, give professionals ready-made tools for working with families * Explanations of proven strategies, including speech acoustics applications, Rainbow audiogram, e=mc2, Activities of Daily Living (ADL) theory, cookie dough theory, three-act play, and the dangling carrot * A deep conversation about the role of culture provides a uniting thread throughout the text Disclaimer: Please note that ancillary content such as handouts, learning activities, and discussion questions may not be included as published in the original print version of this book.
