This paper reviews and discusses research on notetaking during academic listening conducted in both first (L1) and second language (L2) contexts and is organized into two main categories: research that is beginning to impact English for academic purposes (EAP) classrooms and that which has yet to make an impact on EAP, but should. Overall, I…

Brereton, Peter; Cousins, Emily Yuko – Language Teaching, 2022
In his 2016 articles (Hyland, 2016a, 2016b), Ken Hyland makes a case for what he terms the 'myth of linguistic injustice', calling into question the assumption that 'non-native' users of English are at a linguistic disadvantage compared with their 'native' counterparts when writing for publication. In response, Flowerdew (2019) argues that Hyland…

Research employing psycholinguistic techniques to assess the on-line processing of collocation by native and non-native speakers has flourished in the past few years.

Hayes-Harb, Rachel; Barrios, Shannon – Language Teaching, 2021
We provide an exhaustive review of studies in the relatively new domain of research on the influence of orthography on second language (L2) phonological acquisition. While language teachers have long recognized the importance of written input--in addition to spoken input--on learners' development, until this century there was very little…

Bonacina-Pugh, Florence; da Costa Cabral, Ildegrada; Huang, Jing – Language Teaching, 2021
This state-of-the-art review focuses on translanguaging in education. In recent years, scholars have engaged in the conceptualisation of 'translanguaging' (e.g. García, 2009; García & Wei, 2014a; Wei, 2018) as well as in conducting a vast and ever-increasing number of empirical studies, in educational contexts in particular. This article aims…

Lightbown, Patsy M.; Spada, Nina – Language Teaching, 2020
One of the challenges facing second and foreign language (L2) teachers and learners in primary and secondary school settings is the limited amount of time available. There is disagreement about how to meet this challenge. In this paper we argue against two 'common sense' recommendations for increasing instructional time -- start as early as…

Wildsmith-Cromarty, Rosemary; Balfour, Robert J. – Language Teaching, 2019
South Africa's history of segregation and the privileging of English and Afrikaans as the only languages of teaching and learning beyond primary schooling, make the post-apartheid period a complex one, especially in light of the Constitutional commitment to multilingualism in the 11 official languages. Research on literacy and language teaching…

Sanz, Cristina; Cox, Jessica G. – Language Teaching, 2017
Multilingualism is now seen as the norm rather than the exception in an age of migration and supranational entities, and where minority language rights and the consequent educational policies have become more common. The field of applied linguistics reflects that transition: second language acquisition (sla) research is slowly being replaced by…

Grabe, William; Zhang, Cui – Language Teaching, 2016
Reading and writing relations, as this concept applies to academic learning contexts, whether as a major way to learn language or academic content, is a pervasive issue in English for academic purposes (EAP) contexts. In many cases, this major link between reading/writing and academic learning is true even though explicit discussions of this…

This state-of-the art paper focuses on the issue of linguistic giftedness, somewhat neglected in the second language acquisition (SLA) literature, attempting to reconceptualize, expand and update this concept in response to latest developments in the fields of psychology, linguistics and neurology. It first discusses contemporary perspectives on…

Schmid, Monika S. – Language Teaching, 2016
Language attrition research has developed in several clearly delimited phases spanning, roughly, each of the three decades between 1982 and 2012 (see Kopke & Schmid 2004 for a more detailed overview and analysis). The first phase was an era of stocktaking, with a number of symposia, collected volumes and special issues of journals. All of…

With global attention currently focused on the challenge of providing Education for All (UNESCO 2000), we must ensure that the language of teaching and learning remains a topic on the agenda towards making sure that the education being provided is effective. This is therefore a critical time to review medium of instruction debates, and to reassess…

Presenting findings from 92 post-2000 articles, we examine research into these practices, what factors influence…
