N2  - "The Second Language Classroom is a comprehensive text which focuses on Second Language Teaching, Second Language Learning, and Learning Materials. Written in honor of Dr. Mary Finocchiaro, it epitomizes her work in the field of language teaching by presenting both theory and practice of the second language classroom. The text surveys the past, evaluates the present, and predicts directions for the 1980's. The chapters approach the second language classroom from many viewpoints, including communicative language teaching, European and American views on materials design, affective language acquisition factors, teacher preparation, and language learning environments."
