Spring 2019 Journal pdf

Description

In this Spring 2019 edition, Helena Lustenberger’s fascinating interview with Professor David Crystal sets the scene for a Focus on Vocabulary. This lexical journey then takes us forward with Hannah McCulloch in conversation with Professor Paul Nation, a prominent figure in the field of vocabulary research, one whose tireless work and dedication spans decades, and who continues to influence teachers and classrooms across the globe. Then we move to Scott Thornbury’s consideration of Michael Lewis’s lexical approach and the impact it has had on second language learning 25 years after it was first proposed. The content overview below illustrates the diversity of the articles that we hope will encourage and inspire you to experiment with vocabulary teaching in your own classrooms.
