Introducing Second Language Acquisition 3/e 書號： 8020336 ISBN： 9781316603925 作者： Muriel Saville-Troike 出版日期： 2017 年 01 月 簡介 How is a second language acquired? What does the second language learner need to know? Why are some learners more successful than others? Saville-Troike and Barto use non- technical language to answer these questions and many more, bringing concepts to life by referring to a wide, global range of learning motivations and contexts. New edition features • Revised and updated throughout, including new material on the practical aspects of teaching language. • Updated references and further reading suggestions. • Updated online resources, including new classroom activities to accompany each chapter and teaching tips for instructors. Providing a solid foundation in second language acquisition, this book has become the leading introduction to the field for students of linguistics, psychology and education, and trainee language teachers. Now in its third edition, this textbook offers comprehensive coverage of fundamental concepts, including second language acquisition (SLA) in adults and children, in formal and informal learning contexts, and in diverse socio-cultural settings, and takes an interdisciplinary approach, encouraging students to consider SLA from linguistic, psychological and social perspectives. Each chapter contains a list of key terms, a summary, and a range of graded exercises suitable for self-testing and class discussion, and questions for self-study aid active learning. MURIEL SAVILLE-TROIKE is Professor Emerita from the University of Arizona, named Regents' Professor of English before her retirement. KAREN BARTO is a Content Developer and Lecturer at the Center for English as a Second Language at the University of Arizona. Just what everyone teaching Second Language Acquisition has been waiting for - a truly undergraduate textbook. It explains the terms regularly used by those in the field but not always understood by beginners. It is non-partisan in its approach, well organized, clearly laid out and provides good, worked-through examples ... it is the first truly 'joined up work in the field!' Vera Regan, University College Dublin 'By structuring an SLA course around the main questions the field investigates, Saville-Troike focuses students' attention on the important issues that illuminate the study of SLA. The adaptable nature of the book also makes it ideal for courses that include both undergraduate and graduating students, and for courses that have both students who intend to continue taking courses in SLA, and those who do not.' Wynne Wong, Ohio State University ... combines great clarity of exposition, a focus on the linguistics of second language acquisition, and an effort to integrate diverse theoretical perspectives into a complex understanding of second language acquisition as a whole - all in less than 300 pages.
