Abstract
TEACHING AND LEARNING VOCABULARY: BRINGING RESEARCH INTO PRACTICE. Elfrieda H. Hiebert and Michael L. Kamil (Eds.). Mahwah, NJ: Erlbaum, 2005. Pp. x + 273. 39.95 paper.This volume is an anthology of papers originally presented at a conference convened in response to the influential report by the National Reading Panel in the United States in 2000, which highlighted the need for renewed research into vocabulary teaching and learning in American schools as one key component of a national strategy to boost literacy levels. The authors of the 12 chapters are some of the relatively small group of researchers who continued to undertake research on vocabulary during the past 20 years, when it has been strictly a minority activity within the first language (L1) reading research community in North America.
