Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection is a comprehensive resource on conducting research in applied linguistics involving written genres that is distinctive in its coverage of a multiplicity of interdisciplinary perspectives. The volume explores the central approaches, methodologies, analyses, and tools used in conducting genre-based research, extending the traditional focus on a single framework for defining genres by explicating the major approaches that have been invoked in applied linguistics. Chapters address a mix of commonly used methodologies (e.g., case studies, ethnographic approaches), types of analyses (e.g., metadiscourse, rhetorical move-step analysis, multidimensional analysis, lexical bundles and phrase frames, CALF measures, multimodal analysis), and studies that focus on other areas of second language (L2) teaching and learning (e.g., multilingualism, the Teaching and Learning Cycle). Taken together, the volume provides a theoretically and methodologically diverse introduction to foundational topics in genre-related research, supported by detailed discussions of the challenges and practical considerations to take into account when conducting research involving written genres. This book is a valuable resource for graduate students, faculty, and researchers in applied linguistics, particularly those working in second language acquisition, L2 writing, and genre theory and pedagogy.

Book excerpt: This edited volume presents narratives on a range of methods for research on second language teaching and learning appropriate to the elementary, middle, and high schools (K-12). Teacher researchers in different worldwide contexts narrate their processes to explain and demonstrate practitioner research in context; contributors describe their research from exploring the rationale for the project, to designing the study, analyzing the data, and disseminating it. As such, the book illustrates how K-12 practitioners design, gather, analyze, interpret, and strategically employ data to make data-driven, evidence-based, and analysis-informed instructional, assessment, and programmatic decisions. This volume empowers teacher-researchers and allows them to envision research projects in their own classrooms. Offering new insights into the researchers’ thinking processes, challenges, and solutions, and advocating teacher research for understanding learning, the teaching of language, and the development of SLA, this text will appeal to educators and researchers involved in language education, second language acquisition, TESOL, ESL/EFL/ELT, and applied linguistics.

Book excerpt: Postsecondary language classrooms perpetuate racial discrimination and linguistic inequalities, posing a significant problem for racialized students who face institutional barriers and erasure of their linguistic identities. Interrogating Race and Racism in Postsecondary Language Classrooms, edited by Xiangying Huo and Clayton Smith, offers a transformative solution by confronting deeply ingrained racism, linguicism, and neo-racism in language education. Through an intersectional lens, the book exposes these issues and provides practical strategies to combat injustice, fostering inclusive learning environments. With topics ranging from power dynamics to anti-oppressive pedagogies, the book equips readers with tools to effect meaningful change. By amplifying marginalized voices and emphasizing anti-racist and anti-colonial practices, it empowers educators and policymakers to dismantle oppressive systems. This comprehensive resource has the potential to reshape language classrooms and create equitable educational landscapes that value diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds, contributing to a more just and inclusive society.

This book was released on 2023-12-05 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An essential text on discourse theory and analytic methods, this book demonstrates the possibilities of using discourse analysis to better understand language, literacy, culture, and teaching. Each chapter provides coherent, extended examples of individuals engaged in the process of doing discourse analysis. The narrative approach highlights the individual experiences of the discourse analysts and provides a unique, inside-the-mind view of the process and choices along the way. Across the book, stories describe processes involved in analyses, including identifying aims, formulating questions, selecting discourse, transcribing oral and multimodal discourse, translating discourse, chunking discourse, choosing and applying discourse and other theory, generating and supporting claims, and communicating findings. Chapters also feature sidebars with key theories and methods, recommended readings, and additional resources. This book is ideal for courses on discourse analysis, qualitative research, or language, literacy, culture, and teaching. Readers are invited to imagine the possibilities for using discourse analysis to answer their own questions.

Book excerpt: This edited book expands the current scholarship on teaching world languages for social justice and equity in K-12 and postsecondary contexts in the US. Over the past decade, demand has been growing for a more critical approach to teaching languages and cultures: in response, this volume brings together a group of scholars whose work bridges the fields of world language education and critical approaches to education. Within the current US context, the chapters address the following key questions: (1) How are pre-service or in-service world language teachers/professors embedding issues, understandings, or content related to social justice, human rights, access, critical pedagogy and equity into their teaching and curriculum? (2) How are teacher educators preparing language teachers to teach for social justice, human rights, access and equity?
