Description
SLA Applied: Connecting Theory and Practice is an essential resource for language educators seeking to implement research-based approaches in their classrooms. Authors Brian Tomlinson and Hitomi Masuhara provide a comprehensive examination of how Second Language Acquisition (SLA) theory translates into effective teaching practices.
The book addresses the persistent disconnect between SLA research findings and practical classroom application. Through detailed case studies and evidence-based recommendations, the authors demonstrate how understanding acquisition processes can improve language teaching outcomes. Topics include input processing, interaction, output production, and the role of grammar instruction in communicative contexts.
Published by Cambridge University Press, this work serves as both a professional development resource and an academic reference for teachers, teacher trainers, and applied linguistics students. It combines theoretical depth with actionable strategies for enhancing student language development and engagement.
