An overview of form-focused instruction as an option for second language grammar teaching. It combines theoretical concerns, classroom practices, and teacher education.
This volume investigates the role and efficacy of form-focused instruction (FFI) within second language acquisition and its integration into contemporary teacher education programs. Editors Sandra Fotos and Hossein Nassaji compile a series of scholarly contributions that bridge the gap between abstract linguistic theory and practical classroom application. By honoring the work of Rod Ellis, the text provides a comprehensive framework for understanding how grammar instruction can be effectively embedded in communicative language teaching environments.
