520 _a"Wilga M. Rivers is a leading authority on the theory and practice of language teaching. In this revised edition of her classic collection of essays, several new papers have been added, others dropped. All the articles have been significantly updated to reflect the author's view on issues of current concern to the language teaching profession. The articles are accompanied by thought-provoking discussion questions that will be valuable for teachers-in-training. Seasoned language teachers will also find these updated essays enormously useful. Professor Rivers deals with questions fundamental to the work of language teachers, including educational goals for foreign-language teachers, linguistic and psychological factors in learning, motivation, teacher-student relations, and the need for basic change in the role of university and college language departments."
