Summary
"Exploring Modern Greek as a Second, Foreign, and Heritage Language considers the diverse educational contexts within which Modern Greek is taught and how these diverse contexts substantially alter the requirements for materials, teacher training, and instructional practices. Divided into three parts, the book systematically examines the teaching of Greek as a second language, as a heritage language, and as a foreign language for students in Greece and further afield. The methodologies within vary from interviews to case-studies and introduce innovative approaches such as experiential learning, creative writing and theatrical practices designed to create a more holistic learning experience. The in-depth studies provided in this collection are designed to raise awareness of the unique challenges and different needs arising in the Greek language classroom and the implications for teachers and learners. The book will be essential reading for educators, researchers, and policy makers interested in the teaching of Greek as a second, foreign, or heritage language"-- Provided by publisher.
