✦ Synopsis


This book argues that the foreign language classroom should be regarded as a multilingual community of practice. From a sociocultural and ecological position, Levine guides the reader through a theoretical, empirical, and pedagogical treatment of the important roles of the first language, and of code-switching practices, in the language classroom.
