Book Description
This collection is a comprehensive resource on the state of second language vocabulary learning today, building on earlier studies to spotlight the diversity of issues and foci in the field toward encouraging further advancements in both research and practice. The volume foregrounds the importance of vocabulary learning in language teaching and learning and in effective written and verbal communication, charting the range of approaches and theories used to address the unique challenges of vocabulary instruction. While there exists a well-established body of vocabulary research, this book takes those lines of inquiry in new directions by exploring how technology has shifted the focus from teacher-led delivery to more activity-driven experiences. Chapters from prominent researchers and rising scholars feature studies on emergent approaches in virtual environments such as interactive whiteboards, CMC, virtual world learning, and mobile-assisted language learning. In offering a holistic portrait of technology-enhanced vocabulary learning the volume makes the case for the power of technological tools in fostering optimal environments for encouraging vocabulary acquisition and in turn, the potential opportunities for future research and pedagogical applications. This book will be of interest to students and scholars in second language acquisition, language education, TESOL, and applied linguistics.

Teaching and Learning in Digital World
Author: Mercè Gisbert
Publisher: PUBLICACIONS UNIVERSITAT ROVIRA I VIRGILI
ISBN: 8484243761
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 212
Book Description
Many reports over the last few years have analysed the potential use of games, videogames, 3D environments and virtual reality for educational purposes. Numerous emerging technological devices have also appeared that will play important roles in the development of teaching and learning processes. In the context of these developments, learning rather than teaching becomes the main axis in the organisation of the educational process. This process has now gone beyond the analogue world and face-toface education to enter the digital world, where new learning environments are being produced with ever greater doses of realism. Teaching and Learning in Digital Worlds examines the teaching and learning process in 3D virtual environments from both the theoretical and practical points of view.

Book Description
Praise for How Learning Works "How Learning Works is the perfect title for this excellent book. Drawing upon new research in psychology, education, and cognitive science, the authors have demystified a complex topic into clear explanations of seven powerful learning principles. Full of great ideas and practical suggestions, all based on solid research evidence, this book is essential reading for instructors at all levels who wish to improve their students' learning." —Barbara Gross Davis, assistant vice chancellor for educational development, University of California, Berkeley, and author, Tools for Teaching "This book is a must-read for every instructor, new or experienced. Although I have been teaching for almost thirty years, as I read this book I found myself resonating with many of its ideas, and I discovered new ways of thinking about teaching." —Eugenia T. Paulus, professor of chemistry, North Hennepin Community College, and 2008 U.S. Community Colleges Professor of the Year from The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching and the Council for Advancement and Support of Education "Thank you Carnegie Mellon for making accessible what has previously been inaccessible to those of us who are not learning scientists. Your focus on the essence of learning combined with concrete examples of the daily challenges of teaching and clear tactical strategies for faculty to consider is a welcome work. I will recommend this book to all my colleagues." —Catherine M. Casserly, senior partner, The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching "As you read about each of the seven basic learning principles in this book, you will find advice that is grounded in learning theory, based on research evidence, relevant to college teaching, and easy to understand. The authors have extensive knowledge and experience in applying the science of learning to college teaching, and they graciously share it with you in this organized and readable book." —From the Foreword by Richard E. Mayer, professor of psychology, University of California, Santa Barbara; coauthor, e-Learning and the Science of Instruction; and author, Multimedia Learning
