Now in its sixth edition, this bestselling textbook remains the cornerstone for the study of second language acquisition, providing a comprehensive yet accessible introduction to SLA.
This substantially revised and updated edition has been edited into ten chapters, with a focus on the most frequently taught core themes and increased accessibility. A new introductory chapter provides a concise overview of the history of the field. Omitted chapters are available online where supplementation is desired. The text continues to provide a rich range of pedagogical tools that encourage students to reflect upon the experiences of second language learners. As with previous editions, discussion questions and problems are peppered throughout each chapter to help students apply their knowledge, and a glossary defines and reinforces must-know terminology. Additional questions and problems appear on the online companion website.
This seminal text is ideal core reading for SLA courses in second language studies, applied linguistics, linguistics, TESOL, and/or language education programs. This textbook is supported with Instructor and Student Resources, including PowerPoint slides, exercises, flashcards, audio and video links: www.routledge.com/cw/gass.
"Second Language Acquisition: An Introductory Course provides a thorough, current, and detailed discussion of the theory, research, and practice in key areas of SLA. Its accessibility, breadth, depth, and practical insights make it an essential resource for all stakeholders, including researchers, practitioners, and policymakers."
Shaofeng Li, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University
"Authored by leading scholars in the field, this comprehensive yet readable volume is an ideal introductory text to SLA. Instructors will appreciate the reflection questions, the inclusion of timely topics such as social justice and SLA, and the concise 10-chapter structure to help them build a thorough yet manageable course."
Wynne Wong, The Ohio State University
"A comprehensive introduction to SLA book that has withstood the test of time, the sixth edition of Second Language Acquisition: An Introductory Course exceeds expectations. With an overview of fundamental concepts enhanced by improved supplementary online resources, this book is a must-have for any level of SLA enthusiasts."
Amy S. Thompson, Florida State University
