Content-Based Teaching of Russian as a Foreign Language explores how content-based instruction can be applied in the teaching of Russian as an additional or heritage language. Bringing together the perspectives and experiences of scholar-practitioners, this edited collection presents diverse contemporary approaches to the content-based instruction of Russian.
Through case studies that detail content-based courses and their evolution over recent years, the volume offers valuable insights into pedagogical innovation for developing and modernizing curricula. While grounded in research, the case studies emphasize practical application, providing models that can be adapted or replicated. Each chapter offers "lessons learned" to help educators tailor these courses to various settings. The chapters span all proficiency levels, from beginner to advanced, and they engage with a wide range of content.
The book will appeal to instructors of Russian in the fields of Russian studies and Slavonic studies, as well as anyone interested in Russian language pedagogy, foreign language acquisition, or curriculum development.
