Despite its popularity, some researchers have questioned this theory that students can learn new words by inferring meanings based on a text they are reading. So, why does the incidental method not work for some students? What are the conditions for naturalistic learning to occur? What do students need to be able to do while reading in order to learn words successfully? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTackling these questions head-on, this book provides researchers and educators with a more specific account of the processes behind the seemingly naturalistic method. Clarifying the connection between reading and word learning processes, Megumi Hamada proposes a new model, the Cognitive Model of Word-Meaning Inference, to describe how we obtain and use word-form and contextual information for learning words and the pedagogical applications of this. A significant new contribution to research in the field, \u003ci\u003eLearning Words from Reading\u003c\/i\u003e provides a cognitive perspective on how students learn new words from reading in a second or foreign language.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Megumi Hamada\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1350251704\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350251700\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/23\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 172\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.37d","brand":"Megumi Hamada","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44071404372223,"sku":"9781350251700","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8615b92f-c479-4b0c-92dd-b631b53a7c00.jpg?v=1685435897","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/learning-words-from-reading-megumi-hamada-9781350251700","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
