2022 Chapter 3. Stabilization: A dynamic account Second Language Acquisition Theory: The legacy of Professor Michael H. Long, Benati, Alessandro G. and John W. Schwieter (eds.), pp. 29–76 | Chapter
We accord with Mike Long’s rejection of fossilization as a concept able to describe or explain second language acquisition. And we share his bewilderment (Long, 2003, p. 512f.) that since most studies of fossilization make reference to explanatory factors external to language and cognition,… read more
2020 Discursive constructions of the viewing of a bathroom as a linguistic landscape in a shared home Australian Review of Applied Linguistics 43:1, pp. 29–51 | Article
In the linguistic landscapes (LL) literature there is frequent mention of the viewing of public locales by passers-by, owners, and tourists, who necessarily enter and exit locales in different ways, times, and conditions. This paper extends our understanding of the viewing of LL by investigating… read more

2019 Chapter 7. Using the Multiplicity framework to reposition and reframe the Hypothesis Space Widening Contexts for Processability Theory: Theories and issues, Lenzing, Anke, Howard Nicholas and Jana Roos (eds.), pp. 157–184 | Chapter
In this chapter we explore how the Multiplicity framework of the communicative repertoire offers ways to expand understandings of Hypothesis Space and widens insights into the process of second language acquisition currently offered by PT. We focus on the potential of the Multiplicity framework for… read more

2019 Using young learners’ language environments for EFL learning: Ways of working with linguistic landscapes Policy and practice in early language learning, Enever, Janet and Patricia Driscoll (eds.), pp. 91–111 | Article
In this article we explore how primary school learners of English in Germany engage with examples of English that they were asked to locate in their local environments (their linguistic landscapes, LLs). In association with each located image, the learners completed a standardised worksheet in… read more
2008 Defining child second language acquisition, defining roles for L2 instruction Second Language Acquisition and the Younger Learner: Child's play?, Philp, Jenefer, Rhonda Oliver and Alison Mackey (eds.), pp. 27–51 | Article
In this chapter, ‘child’ second language acquisition is defined as distinct fromboth ‘adult’ second language acquisition and from either monolingual or simultaneous bilingual development in childhood. We argue that ‘second language acquisition’ begins at a very early age (certainly before age 3)… read more
