The Routledge Handbook of Instructed Second Language Acquisition is the first collection of state-of-the-art papers pertaining to Instructed Second Language Acquisition (ISLA). Written by 45 world-renowned experts, the entries are full-length articles detailing pertinent issues with up-to-date references. Each chapter serves three purposes:(1) provide a review of current literature and discussions of cutting edge issues;(2) share the authors’ understanding of, and approaches to, the issues; and(3) provide direct links between research and practice.In short, based on the chapters in this handbook, ISLA has attained a level of theoretical and methodological maturity that provides a solid foundation for future empirical and pedagogical discovery. This handbook is the ideal resource for researchers, graduate students, upper-level undergraduate students, teachers, and teacher-educators who are interested in second language learning and teaching..

Evidence-Based Second Language Pedagogy is a cutting-edge collection of empirical research conducted by top scholars focusing on instructed second language acquisition (ISLA) and offering a direct contribution to second language pedagogy by closing the gap between research and practice. Building on the conceptual, state-of-the-art chapters in The Routledge Handbook of Instructed Second Language Acquisition (2017), studies in this volume are organized according to the key components of ISLA: types of instruction, learning processes, learning outcomes, and learner and teacher psychology. The volume responds to pedagogical needs in different L2 teaching and learning settings by including a variety of theoretical frameworks (sociological, psychological, sociocultural, and cognitive), methodologies (qualitative and quantitative), target languages (English, Spanish, and Mandarin), modes of instruction (face-to-face and computer-mediated), targets of instruction (speaking, writing, listening, motivation, and professional development), and instructional settings (second language, foreign language, and heritage language). A novel synthesis of research in the rapidly growing field of ISLA that also covers effective research-based teaching strategies, Evidence-Based Second Language Pedagogy is the ideal resource for researchers, practitioners, and graduate students in SLA, applied linguistics, and TESOL.

Quasi-Experimental Research in Second Language Acquisition: A Practical Guide is a collection of innovative essays focusing on quasi-experimental designs in second language (L2) research, offering helpful insights into conducting robust, replicable, and ethical research.While pure-experimental research designs have received more attention in applied linguistic communities, quasi-experimental methods have been largely overlooked, even though they provide similar advantages with fewer limitations. In this volume, world-renowned scholars address key issues related to conceptualizing and conducting L2 quasi-experimental research, including sampling practices, materials development, conducting research in authentic classrooms, ethical considerations, and research with young learners. With this broad coverage, the book is comprehensive, accessible, and practical for both beginners and experienced researchers. Each chapter is structured to promote ease of learning, providing both theoretical background and practical guidance through a “how-to” section. This is further divided into two engaging parts that focus on problem-solving and hands-on activities and exercises.This volume is an essential resource for undergraduate and graduate students in applied linguistics, as well as researchers interested in research methods and classroom-based research.

An essential resource for individuals entering the field of second language (L2) teaching and learning, this book provides a complete set of instructional materials written in accessible language. Providing enough material to use for an entire semester, the book offers exciting activities for the L2 classroom, alongside outlining the theories and research that support them, including how to connect theory with practice. Each chapter includes: extensive and up-to-date content presented in a clear, engaging, and accessible manner; pre- and post-reading activities to help students connect the topics to their own lives; pedagogical guidelines with practical suggestions; summaries of empirical studies in non-technical, jargon-free language; end-of-chapter assignments which re-enforce students' learning and relate directly to the content. The book concludes with a compelling chapter on the research-practice dialogue. Online resources include lecture slides for instructors and audio files.
