Heritage language development and the promise of Processability Theory / Silvina Montrul.Teachability and Learnability across Languages addresses key issues in second, foreign and heritage language acquisition, as well as in language teaching. Focusing on a Processability Theory perspective, it brings together empirical studies of language acquisition, language teaching, and language assessment. For the first time, a research timeline for the role of instruction in language learning is presented, showing how the field of second language acquisition (SLA) research has developed over the last four decades since Pienemann's work on learnability and syllabus construction over the 1980s. The book includes studies of child and adult second as well as foreign language acquisition research, covering a wide range of target languages including English, German, Hungarian, Japanese, Norwegian, Polish, Spanish, Swedish, and Turkish. In addition, future extensions of PT are discussed. This volume is designed for advanced students in international programs of SLA and Applied Linguistics as well as for SLA researchers and second and foreign language teachers.Processability Approaches to Language Acquisition Research & Teaching ;volume 6.Second language acquisitionPsychological aspectsLanguage and languagesStudy and teachingForeign speakersLanguage acquisitionPsycholinguisticsElectronic books.Second language acquisitionPsychological aspects.Language and languagesStudy and teachingForeign speakers.Language acquisition.Psycholinguistics.418.0019Arntzen RagnarHakansson GiselaHjelde Arnstein1961-,Kefller Jorg-UMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQAuAdUSABOOK9910494592803321Teachability and learnability across languages2483601UNINA02996nam 2200661Ia 450 991078400280332120231206204319.01-280-71815-397866107181531-55250-215-5(CKB)1000000000336044(EBL)259228(OCoLC)62783418(SSID)ssj0000242753(PQKBManifestationID)11188225(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000242753(PQKBWorkID)10311682(PQKB)11033634(CaBNvSL)gtp00521941 (Au-PeEL)EBL259228(CaPaEBR)ebr10120526(CaONFJC)MIL71815(OCoLC)437167054(VaAlCD)20.500.12592/p968wh(schport)gibson_crkn/2009-12-01/3/405822(MiAaPQ)EBC259228(MiAaPQ)EBC3243399(EXLCZ)99100000000033604420060222d2005 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrSeason of hope[electronic resource] economic reform under Mandela and Mbeki /Alan HirschScottsville, South Africa University of KwaZulu-Natal Press ;Ottowa International Development Research Centre20051 online resource (305 p.)Description based upon print version of record.1-86914-041-9 Includes bibliographical references (p. 267-281) and index.Contents; Acknowledgements; List of abbreviations; Introduction: 'A better life for all'; Chapter One: The economic legacy of apartheid; Chapter Two: From Kliptown to the RDP: The evolution of the ANC's economic policy; Chapter Three: Getting into GEAR; Chapter Four: Competing globally, restructuring locally; Chapter Five: Jobs and skills: Remaking the labour market; Chapter Six: Reaching for the economic kingdom: Black economic empowerment and small and medium business development; Chapter Seven: The two economies and the challenge of faster growth; Conclusion: Asking new questionsSelect bibliographyIndex;Offers an insight into the circumstances under which the policies were developed, implemented and reviewed, as well as a study of the outcomes.
