Full Description

This book investigates the three pivotal points of
text for foreign language acquisition: reception, construction and deconstruction. In
Part One, the focus is on various aspects of text reception, such as developing
literacy, text interest, and perceptions of the academic register or the
assessment of spoken language in educational contexts. Part Two deals with
various aspects of composing text, such as author identity, lexical constructs
or collaborative web-based writing. Lastly, Part Three presents the various
segmental items that constitute text, like lexical clustering, L1/L2
relationship, classroom talk as text, etc. The division corresponds with what
can be viewed as a logical sequence of text-related processes reflected in
formal learning and teaching environments.
