Den Auftakt zur Reihe »Interdisziplinäre Verortungen der Angewandten Linguistik« machen polnische Linguist*innen und Pädagog*innen mit einem konzeptionellen Diskurs im Kontext der Fremdsprachendidaktik (mit dem Schwerpunkt auf DaF-Aspekte) und der Pädagogik. Dabei versuchen sie mit theoretischen Ansätzen, empirischen Erkenntnissen sowie Beispielen aus der Best Practice, die Lehrerforschung theoretisch und empirisch neu zu verorten. Thematisiert werden dabei unterschiedliche Phasen der Lehrer*innenbildung mit Berücksichtigung der Aus-, Fort- und Weiterbildungsmaßnahmen sowie aktuelle Problemstellungen der beruflichen Lehrer*innenidentität.Being an appeal for an interdisciplinary perspective on the Foreign Language Teacher Research, this collective volume invites its Readers to a discussion with Polish linguists and pedagogues. It offers an informative conceptual discourse set in the context of FLT (with an emphasis on DaF aspects) and pedagogy. Theoretical approaches, empirical findings as well as examples of Best Practices are an attempt to position the FL Teacher Research in a new theoretical and empirical way. The topics of the contributions cover different phases of teacher education, taking into account various means of professional training and development as well as current problems regarding the professional identity of FL teachers.
This volume comprises 16 chapters – both research papers and theoretical contributions – grouped in three thematic sections. The chapters in the first part, entitled "Discourse Communities: Languages in Contact," adopt a social and/or historical perspective on bi-/multilingualism. The contributions in the second part, entitled "Languages in the Mind: Language Development and Language Use," view issues related to bi- and multilingualism from psycholinguistic and psychological perspectives. The chapters comprising the third part, "Language Education: Supporting Multilingual Development," adopt a broadly understood didactic perspective on bi-/multilingualism.
This volume starts with an overview of the history of teaching Polish as a foreign language from the beginning of the 16th century to 1939. The authors then present the rapid development of teaching Polish as a foreign language from 1992 to 2015. This is supplemented by information on the methodology of teaching Polish. In the next part they describe the didactics of the Polish language abroad, followed by the introduction of the Polish language policy and the promotion of Polish outside Poland. Then they present the teaching of Polish as a second language and the problems of communication. At the end, information is given about the achievements of European didactics in the field of teaching Polish as a foreign and second language. The volume concludes with a proposal for the creation of a didactics of European languages (including Slavic languages as well).
The aim of the volume is to focus on research interests that are rarely presented in the literature on the subject and that arise from the currently perceived needs of the developing didactics of Polish as a foreign language. The research results presented in the contributions provide a new look at the process of acquiring and/or teaching/learning Polish from the following aspects: the peculiarities of Ukrainian speakers learning Polish; problems of acquiring Polish by students from Japan, China, France and Lebanon, methods of developing language skills and activities, and specific phenomena in teaching Polish as a business language. Qualitative, quantitative, and mixed analyses, as well as experimental corpora, allow the results described to be considered important for the developing discipline.
This volume compiles the latest research on learning and teaching Polish as a foreign and second language among Ukrainian migrants and refugees. The authors address the growing necessity for developing both theoretical frameworks and practical solutions to facilitate efficient language acquisition and acculturation amidst the unprecedented inflow of migrants resulting from the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. The research presented in this volume marks an important initial step in recognizing and analyzing the diverse needs of individuals with migrant and refugee experiences. Furthermore, it offers new perspectives that pave the way for future advancements in the field of Polish language education.
