1. Vinegrad, Anna, Applied Linguistics: Learner Contributions to Language Learning

LEARNER CONTRIBUTIONS TO LANGUAGE LEARNING
Michael Breen, Centre for English Language Teaching, University of Stirling
	
What the learner contributes is central to the language learning
process. Learner Contributions to Language Learning provides a
uniquely comprehensive account of learners' personal attributes, their
thinking, their feelings, and their actions that have been shown to
have an impact upon language learning.
	
Containing specific chapters from leading names in the field, this
book provides both a review of what has been discovered from previous
research and identifies important future directions for research on
learner contributions. It is a landmark volume setting the agenda for
language learning research in the 21st century and it provides
invaluable information for all those engaged in language teaching.
