Editor
Language Teaching
Graeme
Porte has
been
the editor of Language
Teaching
since 2004 when it consolidated its
emergence as a unique research resource for the L2 researcher and
practitioner. This journal is indexed on
the Social Sciences/Arts and Humanities Citation Index. Specially
commissioned
articles survey
up-to-date research on specific topics, and new strands of articles
survey recent research on L2 learning and
teaching conducted in
individual
countries and research on the teaching of languages other than English.
Other new research survey strands include plenary and keynote speeches
from recent international events, annual reviews of the most
significant research to emerge, reviews of recent PhD work worldwide,
research agendas, and reports from research groups around the world.
Research timelines
by specialists in the field provide essential annotated bibliography on
the historical development
of research agendas, and a further new series is devoted exclusively to
the publication of replication research studies. http://journals.cambridge.org/lta-alerts

Appraising Research in Second Language Learning (2nd Edition, 2010)
With its second, expanded edition published in 2010, and currently recommended or core reading on over 80 applied linguistics and TEFL postgraduate courses worldwide, this combined text- and workbook is the first to provide specific advice and support to those wishing to learn how to approach the systematic critical reading and analysis of research in our field. It seeks to answer a current need in the literature for a set of procedures that can be applied to the independent reading of quantitative research.
