Title | Book: Encounters in Adult Second-Language Learning |
Body | From http://www.peterlang.com/Index.cfm?vLang=E&vSiteID=4&vSiteName=BookDetail.cfm&VID=430017 The Dance of Learning: On Encounters in Adult Second-Language Learning by Jeannette Regan Peter Lang Publishing Group Summary: This study uses action research and action learning to deepen the author's understanding and praxis. 'Vignettes', recollections of previous experience, are the author's windows on more than twenty-five years as an adult learner of languages and as an English teacher for non-native adults, primarily academics. The vignettes validate ordinary pedagogical acts and introduce spiritual and physical dimensions to language learning that are commonly overlooked. The process of reflection leads to an emerging awareness of «crisscross scholars» - the increasingly common breed of academic who is multilingual, multicultural, and multidisciplinary.
