| Purpose: The purpose of this module is to equip students, including language teachers and other language professionals, with an informed and critical understanding of the key issues, theoretical trends and research practices within Applied Linguistics, as these relate to the maturational, cognitive and affective factors that impact additional language learning and teaching. Students who qualify in this module can connect their understanding of Applied Linguistics with their actual engagement in additional language learning or teaching, so that they learn from new knowledge, from their actions and from their learning/teaching contexts. The module provides students with evidence-based additional language learning and teaching principles and techniques, and with the capacity to promote and implement a culture of reflective professionalism and best practice in additional language learning and teaching within a multilingual society.
