This book is written in order to help undergraduate students and trainee teachers to reflect on certain topics and key issues related to second language acquisition. Despite the proliferation of books and introductory courses in second language acquisition, most of these books very often provide a very complex account of theoretical views in second language acquisition and sometimes fail to emphasise the crucial interplay between how people learn languages and what is the most effective way to teach languages. The overall purpose of this book is to provide an overview of second language acquisition research and theories by identifying the main key issues in this field and by highlighting the relevance of this research for classroom implications. The study of second language acquisition is a rich and varied enterprise, carried out by researchers, whose interests and training often lie in broader disciplines of linguistics, psychology, sociology, and education. Readers will be encouraged to critically reflect on the presented content through self-engaging thinking activities in the form of questions, matching activities, choices and conclusions about the implications of SLA theories to the real world applications.

In diesem Band wird ein Ansatz vorgestellt, nach dem der Fächerkanon einer allgemeinbildenden Sekundarstufe I nicht als unverbundene Addition historisch gewachsener, kontingenter und austauschbarer Fächer gesehen werden soll, sondern als sinnvoller Denk- und Handlungszusammenhang. Der fachliche Kern der Fächer, bestehend aus Konzepten und Prozeduren, wird dabei in den Mittelpunkt gerückt. Jedes Fach kann einen unersetzbaren Beitrag zu reflexiver Grundbildung im Sinne eines tiefenstrukturell angelegten Orientierungswissens liefern. Dies wird an vielen Beispielen aufgezeigt. Die Beziehungen der Fächer zueinander ergeben ein Fächerstrukturkonzept. Dieses soll dazu dienen, die angestrebte fachspezifische Kompetenzentwicklung der Schülerinnen und Schüler im Kontext einer Schul- und Unterrichtsentwicklung im Fächerdialog ebenso zu unterstützen wie den Aufbau von nachhaltigen fachlichen Wissensstrukturen. Dieser Band richtet sich damit an Lehrende, Lehramtsstudierende und alle im Umfeld von Bildung tätigen Personen.

Jana, protagonistka romana s slovenskega podeželja, v Amsterdamu sreča starca iz vzhodne Italije, ki na bolšjaku prodaja živo ribo. Vsak od njih s seboj nosi številne zgodbe, ki se med seboj prepletejo in zavrtijo, ustvarijo mešanico smešnih, čudnih, neprijetnih, pravljičnih pa tudi romantičnih prigod, ki prek vaških figur, mestnih avantur in mističnih narečij tečejo kakor reka proti izlivu, ki je hkrati že nov izvir. Tako se zgodba "romana reke" nikoli ne konča, konec romana pa je hkrati njegov začetek.
