| Title | New Book: Teaching Word Meanings |
| Body | From http://linguistlist.org/issues/18/18-191.html Teaching Word Meanings, by Steven A. Stahl and William E. Nagy PUBLISHER: Lawrence Erlbaum Associates This text focuses on the teaching of vocabulary from a pragmatic yet theoretically grounded approach to understanding how students learn word meanings as well as how teachers can strategically decide when to invest in particular types of vocabulary development and what that might look like in application. The authors systematically advance a teaching methodology intended to promote long term change in students through the purposeful teaching of 'word consciousness' as a lifelong approach to valuing word discovery and meaning apprehension. Suitable for teacher education programs, including pre-service teaching methods classes, this text is also useful for practicing teachers who are continuing to develop their knowledge and understanding of literacy learning and development.
