The following topicsare included in the series:
- Second language acquisition and the acquisition of additional languages
- Bilingual and multilingual education
- Language planning and language policy
- Literacy skills
- Second/foreign language pedagogy
- Translation and interpretation
- Language for specific purposes
- Discourse analysis
- Language testing and assessment
- Child language
- Language and gender
- Pragmatics and rhetorics
- Corpus analysis
- Critical pedagogies
- Research methodology in applied linguistics
- Language and technology
This volume presents research that lies at the intersection of healthcare communication, global migration, and the rapidly expanding technologies used for language testing. Readers will find engagement with the interdisciplinary studies, given that effective communication - and its assessment - lies at the very core of quality healthcare delivery.
