| Summary, etc. | Educating for Advanced Foreign Language Capacities is a scholarly volume that explores theoretical foundations, curricular design, instructional practices, and assessment approaches aimed at fostering advanced levels of foreign language proficiency in higher education contexts. It responds to a recognized gap in both research and pedagogy: while foundational language learning is well-studied, the advanced stage — where learners function fluently and flexibly in complex academic, professional, and intercultural settings — has been under-emphasized. The book draws on contributions from leading applied linguists and language educators who articulate a range of frameworks and evidence-based insights for defining advancedness in second language learning. Central topics include cognitive-semantic approaches to advanced language structures, narrative competence, vocabulary expansion, genre-based curricula, and the integration of instructional feedback. The volume also examines how advanced learners make situated choices across grammar, vocabulary, and discourse and advocates for meaning-driven, text-oriented teaching and assessment models that better capture real-world communicative demands. By weaving together research, curriculum theory, and practical pedagogy, this work offers language educators and programme designers conceptual tools and actionable strategies to support the development, teaching, and evaluation of advanced foreign language capacities. |
