This volume addresses how theoretical frameworks affect the application of research findings to the teaching of Spanish, how logistical factors affect the way research findings can be applied to teach Spanish, and how findings from Spanish SLA research would be applicable to Spanish second language teaching and represented in Spanish curricula through objectives and goals (as evidenced in pedagogical materials such as textbooks and computer-assisted language learning software). \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTop SLA researchers and applied linguists lend their expertise on matters such as foreign language across curriculum programs, testing, online learning, the incorporation of linguistic variation into the classroom, heritage language learners, the teaching of translation, the effects of study abroad and classroom contexts on learning, and other pedagogical issues. Other common themes of \u003ci\u003eThe Art of Teaching Spanish\u003c\/i\u003e include the rejection of the concept of a monolithic language competence, the importance of language as social practice and cultural competence, the psycholinguistic component of SLA, and the need for more cross-fertilization from related fields.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rafael Salaberry\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1589011333\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781589011335\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Georgetown University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/08\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.01lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.76h x 6.82w x 0.69d","brand":"Rafael Salaberry","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43939823354111,"sku":"9781589011335","price":42.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_4d1f5e7f-70c5-4027-bab5-94220b6a2269.jpg?v=1681443698","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-art-of-teaching-spanish-rafael-salaberry-9781589011335","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
