Body | From http://press.georgetown.edu/detail.html?id=158901118x Educating for Advanced Foreign Language Capacities: Constructs, Curriculum, Instruction, Assessment Edited by Heidi Byrnes, Heather D. Weger-Guntharp, and Katherine A. Sprang Advanced language learning has only recently begun to capture the interest and attention of applied linguists and professionals in language education in the United States. In this breakthrough volume, experts in the field lay the groundwork for approaching the increasingly important role of advanced language learning in the larger context of multilingual societies, globalization, and security. This volume presents both general and theoretical insights and language-specific considerations in college classrooms spanning a range of languages, from the commonly taught languages of English, French, and German to the less commonly taught Farsi, Korean, Norwegian, and Russian.
