This edited collection of empirical studies examines the link between interaction and second language learning. The studies provide readers with insights into a wide variety of issues at the centre of current research into the relationship between conversational interaction and second language learning outcomes.

Key features
Examines the benefits of interactional feedback, discusses the source of the positive outcomes of recasts and negotiations.
Explores the relationship between learners' perceptions and learning.
Investigates individual differences such as working memory and gender, and considers both social and cognitive factors in interaction-driven development.

Research into language learner strategies has the fundamental goal of improving the teaching and learning of second languages. This book explores the notion that the reason some learners of second languages excel and others struggle lies in what the learners themselves do-the strategies they bring to language learning and to language use.

Key features
Provides a unique and timely re-examination of key issues such as strategies in context, strategy instruction, and strategy research methods by numerous experts in the field.
Offers an invaluable overview of what is known from empirical research about listening, reading, speaking, writing, vocabulary, and grammar strategies.
Proposes a clear and focused research agenda for the next decades.
