Title: Book: Discursive Practice in Language Learning and Teaching
Body: From http://www.wiley.com/WileyCDA/WileyTitle/productCd-1405184442.html Discursive Practice in Language Learning and Teaching by Richard F. Young Publisher: Wiley Discursive Practice is a theory of the linguistic and socio-cultural characteristics of recurring episodes of face-to-face interaction; episodes that have social and cultural significance to a community of speakers. This book examines the discursive practice approach to language-in-interaction, explicating the consequences of grounding language use and language learning in a view of social realities as discursively constructed, of meanings as negotiated through interaction, of the context-bound nature of discourse, and of discourse as social action. The book also addresses how participants’ abilities in a specific discursive practice may be learned, taught, and assessed.
