Perspectives on Pedagogical Grammar

In Perspectives on Pedagogical Grammar, Professor Odlin brings together eleven authorities from various parts of the world to update current theory and research in this area of language pedagogy. The first section addresses grammatical analysis, covering Chomskyan Universal Grammar and a number of alternative models. Section two shows how lexicon and discourse rules interact with and influence the grammatical system. A final section deals directly with applications, outlining effective methods of teaching grammar in different areas of the language curriculum.
