The Art of Teaching Italian

"Bringing together experts from around the world in Italian language pedagogy, applied linguistics, and second-language acquisition, this edited volume foregrounds the teaching of secondary and post-secondary Italian language and culture. Best practices for teaching Italian need continual nurturing and research in an ever-changing world, and The Art of Teaching Italian addresses the field's most pressing concerns and challenges with examples from creative teaching. Featuring contributions on a wide range of topics, including DEI issues, language ideologies, experiential learning, blended and online learning, and strategies for countering low enrollments, this book blends empirical research with practical strategies and recommendations for teachers. It will be a valuable addition to Italian language practitioners' and pedagogists' bookshelves"--
