E-raamat: Situating Language Learning Strategy Use: Present Issues and Future Trends

For anyone interested in language learning strategies, whether they be researchers, practitioners or students, this edited volume provides stimulating analyses of theoretical and conceptual issues, insightful perspectives from various learning contexts, and useful implications for promoting learner autonomy. I am confident that this book will further advance our understanding relating to strategic language learning. * Osamu Takeuchi, Kansai University, Japan * These international researcher-teachers bring into focus voices that are rarely heard and deserve amplification. Powerful examples of learners deploying their unique bi/multilingual and cultural backgrounds to choose LLS when learning new L2/L3s are provided throughout. These contributions help readers expand their understandings of multilingual agency and ways to empower learners. * Martha Nyikos, Indiana University, USA * This excellent publication by international researchers clarifies theoretical concepts of LLS and explores new avenues, such as the affordances of technology in assisting strategy instruction, thereby providing a springboard for future research. Its contribution to the literature in previously under-researched areas is enhanced by practical suggestions that bridge the gap between research and classroom practice. * Pamela Gunning, Concordia University, Canada *
