Abstract
Review. Research and teaching at the intersection: Navigating the territory of grammar and writing in the context of metalinguistic activity, edited by Anna Camps and Xavier Fontich, 2020
Highlights
The book compiled by Anna Camps and Xavier Fontich in Research and teaching at the intersection: Navigating the territory of grammar and writing in the context of metalinguistic activity offers a journey through the research career of GREAL (Grup de Recerca sobre Ensenyament i Aprenentatge de Llengües, Research Group on Teaching and Learning of Languages) of over 25 years
According to Bronckart, GREAL has managed to articulate strictly theoretical research with the development of innovative teaching tools. He highlights the contributions of the group in relation to the concept of metalinguistic activity, which is a central aspect of the volume, observed and studied exhaustively in some of the works included in the book
With the entry of the communicative approach and the functionalist perspectives of the language, on the one hand, and the crisis of transmissive approaches, on the other, added to the curricular changes that propose to work on the development of reading and writing skills, emerges the need to rethink the methodology of teaching language in the field of the disciplinary didactics
