Universal Grammar and the Second Language Classroom
This book proposes that research into generative second language acquisition (GenSLA) can be applied to the language classroom. Assuming that Universal Grammar plays a role in second language development, it explores generalisations from GenSLA research. The book aims to build bridges between the fields of generative second language acquisition, applied linguistics, and language teaching; and it shows how GenSLA is poised to engage with researchers of second language learning outside the generative paradigm. Each chapter of Universal Grammar and the Second Language Classroom showcases ways in which GenSLA research can inform language pedagogy.
This book is primarily intended for second, foreign and modern language teachers. It contains a series of short articles in order to provide teachers with theoretically supported classroom strategies for increasing communicative competence at different levels of skill development. Articles highlight the role of comprehensible input at the outset as well as strategies and target more context-specific strategies. The themes include early student comprehension and response, context-based comprehension and interaction, meaning-based communication and problem-solving, group work and the cooperative approach, and refining literacy skills. A final component evaluation is included.

The Norton Field Guide to Writing with Readings and Handbook (Second Edition)
The most successful new rhetoric in a generation, with a reader and a handbook—everything students need, in one book.
Easy to use, flexible, and a great value. With just enough detail — and color-coded links that send students to more detail if they need it — this is the rhetoric that tells students what they need to know and resists the temptation to tell them everything there is to know. The first rhetoric designed for easy reference — with menus, directories, and a glossary/index that make it easy to use.
