Summary:

This volume addresses the following questions: What is language awareness (La)? How can this approach be conceptualized in relation to multilingual education today? How can it be implemented with learners of all ages, from kindergarten to primary, secondary levels and with student-teachers and teachers? What kinds of methodologies are developed to teach La with what aims and what is the nature of the knowledge acquired through LA activities? THE Series: Contributions to The Sociology Of Language. This series features publications dealing with sociolinguistic theory, methods, findings and applications. It addresses the study of language in society in its broadest sense, as a truly international and interdisciplinary field in which various approaches - theoretical and empirical - supplement and complement each other. The series invites the attention of linguists, language teachers of all interests, sociologists, political scientists, anthropologists and historians to the development of the sociology of language.
