Sarah Signer is a graduate translator trained at the FTSK. She is a CELTAcertified English teacher and has taught English as a Foreign Language for several years. She is also a permanent teaching staff member at the FTSK.Long description: This book introduces an approach to elementary adult foreign language learning that is based on theory (in particular, complexity thinking and social constructivism) on the one hand, and years of practice using various unconventional methods on the other. A key assumption of the Scaffolded Language Emergence (SLE) approach is that a language need not be taught or learned in the conventional sense of these terms. Instead, it is argued, language can ‘emerge’, that is generate and maintain itself through authentic use. The study and application of rules is considered most useful in later stages of learning, while intuition and abductive thinking can be used very effectively to initiate or bootstrap naturalistic learning processes – even in adults learning a foreign language.Sprachen lehren - Sprachen lernen ;Band 4.English languageStudy and teachingEnglish languageStudy and teaching.428.0071Kiraly Donald1704591Signer SarahMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910823382803321Scaffolded language emergence in the classroom4090709UNINA
