Riassunto

Taking a sociocultural and educational approach, Language and Linguistics in Context: Readings and Applications for Teachers:introduces basic linguistic concepts and current perspectives on language acquisition;considers the role of linguistic change (especially in English) in the politics of language;acknowledges the role of linguists in current policies involving language; offers insights into the relationship between the structure of language systems and first- and second-language acquisition; the study of language across culture, class, race, gender, and ethnicity; and between language study and literacy and education; andprovides readers with a basis for understanding current educational debates about bilingual education, non-standard dialects, English only movements, literacy methodologies, and generally the importance to teaching of the study of language. The text is organized into three thematic units – "What is Language and How is It Acquired?"; "How Does Language Change?"; and "What is Literacy?".
