The central concern of "Inside/Outside" is the assumption that pedagogical knowledge is generated "outside-in"; that is, from the university, to be applied at schools. The first half of this book provides a thoughtful and thought-provoking conceptual framework for reading and understanding teacher research, exploring its history, potential and relationship to university-based research. Authors argue that teacher research can transform, not simply add to, the present knowledge base in the field, linking research with practice and inquiry with reform. By doing so, they intend to add dimension and energy to the national momentum in this area.

Fluency and Accuracy: Toward Balance in Language Teaching and Learning
This book suggests solutions to the problem of inaccuracy that results from emphasizing fluency. The establishment of an interlanguage is preventable, the restoration of balance depending on a better understanding of proficiency and of the roles of cross-linguistic influence, systematic instruction, and the "deep" correction of errors. The author's call is for more applicable theories of language.
