Sociocultural Theory and the Pedagogical Imperative in L2 Education by James P Lantolf
Rejecting the dichotomy between theory and practice that dominates SLA and language teaching, this book proposes an approach based on Vygotskys sociocultural theory, according to which the two activities are inherently connected."This book’s up-to-date, detailed exposition of L2 SCT research, concepts, and pedagogical practice is certain to appeal to experienced and curious SCT researchers" —Applied Linguistics
