Description

New Directions for Research in Foreign Language Education by Simon Coffey and Ursula Wingate explores the complexities of modern foreign language teaching. This collection of essays examines key issues, including the role of language learning across the lifespan, the impact of neoliberalism on language education, and the need for new directions in teaching English as a second language. The book features contributions from leading researchers in the field, who discuss topics such as the assessment of diverse linguistic and cultural repertoires, the embedding of assessment into the learning process, and the development of competence for foreign languages within a plurilingual paradigm. By shedding light on these important issues, this volume aims to inform and shape the future of foreign language education. Published in 2018, New Directions for Research in Foreign Language Education is a valuable resource for educators, researchers, and policymakers seeking to understand the challenges and opportunities facing modern foreign language teaching.
