Description
Project-based Second and Foreign Language Education: Past, Present, and Future brings together original work from international scholars to address a significant gap in the literature. Despite its growing popularity, there is a need for systematic discussion of project-based learning (PBL) in second and foreign language education. Research has shown that PBL can be an effective approach to teaching various skills, including content-based language education, English for specific purposes, community-based language socialization, critical thinking, and problem-solving. However, empirical research on PBL is limited, and there is a need for frameworks and models based on sound theoretical guidance. This book bridges this gap by providing a comprehensive overview of PBL in second and foreign language education. It offers valuable insights from scholars around the world and provides a foundation for future directions in the field.
