Title: Book: Corrective Feedback, Individual Differences and Second Language Learning
Body: From http://www.springer.com/education+%26+language/learning+%26+instruction/book/978-94-007-0547-0?chang Corrective Feedback, Individual Differences and Second Language Learning by Younghee Sheen Published by Springer Summary: This book explores current thinking about the role of corrective feedback in language learning and teaching. Corrective feedback is a topic that is of relevance to both theories of second language learning and language pedagogy. Younghee Sheen, an Assistant Professor of Applied Linguistics at the American University in Washington D.C., offers a new perspective by reviewing a wide body of research on both oral and written corrective feedback and its contribution to second language acquisition. She also reports the results of her own study, pointing to the need to examine how individual factors such as anxiety and language aptitude mediate learners’ ability to benefit from the oral and written feedback they receive. This book is an important resource for students and scholars of applied linguistics and second language acquisition. It will also be of interest to language teachers and teacher educators wanting to deepen their understanding of error correction strategies in the classroom.

Title: Book: An Introduction to Moroccan Arabic and Culture
Body: From http://press.georgetown.edu/book/languages/introduction-moroccan-arabic-and-culture An Introduction to Moroccan Arabic and Culture by Abdellah Chekayri Published by Georgetown University Press Description: An Introduction to Moroccan Arabic and Culture and the accompanying multimedia DVD are designed to enable students to communicate effectively using Moroccan Arabic. Since Moroccan Arabic is rarely written or used in formal communication, the strength of the book lies in training learners in speaking and listening skills that can be used in everyday situations. The book uses Romanized transcription alongside Arabic script for the first three chapters and thereafter only the Arabic script. It also includes a glossary and answer key. It requires approximately 120 contact hours, plus 180-240 additional hours of preparation outside class. A novice student should reach the intermediate-mid level of proficiency by the end of this course.

Title: Call for Papers: Special Issue Of English for Specific Purposes
Body: From http://linguistlist.org/issues/22/22-6.html Special Issue Of English for Specific Purposes Title: ESP Research in Asia As in many other parts of the world, English is rapidly spreading across Asia. One scholar estimates that the number of English users and learners in China has reached a staggering 330 million in the 21st century. The status of English in Asian societies is also changing, with some businesses in Japan, for example, requiring all their meetings, telephone calls, and e-mail communication to be carried out solely in English. These trends and changes raise serious questions about the impact of English as a 'lingua franca' in professional and academic communication in Asia and draw our research attention to the educational, economic, and social factors that propel the popularity of ESP. The aim of this special issue is to present original ESP research being carried out in Asia that addresses these and other ESP-related questions that fall within the scope of the journal. The deadline for abstracts is June 30, 2011. View the full call for papers at http://linguistlist.org/issues/22/22-6.html
