This research seeks to provide a deeper understanding of the different dimensions of code-switching, contributing to broader discussions in applied linguistics and language education. From the general objective, the project addresses the detailed objectives, specifically, (1) identifying the main functions of code-switching among first-year non-English majors at Nguyen Tat Thanh University with focusing on its role in academic discourse and social interactions, and (2) examining the key factors influencing the code-switching practices of these students, including linguistic, social, psychological, and contextual aspects. By addressing these objectives, the study aims to shed light on the causes, patterns, and implications of code-switching within this particular student population, offering insights into the linguistic, social, and contextual elements that contribute to students’ language behaviors, putting forward to language teaching strategies and communication practices in Vietnamese and English and vice versa in educational settings.

An introduction to applied linguistics : from practice to theory / Alan Davies
Edinburgh : Edinburgh University Press, 2007
216 pages. ; cm.
Ký hiệu phân loại (DDC): 418
This second edition of the foundational textbook An Introduction to Applied Linguistics provides a state-of-the-art account of contemporary applied linguistics. The kinds of language problems of interest to applied linguists are discussed and a distinction drawn between the different research approach taken by theoretical linguists and by applied linguists to what seem to be the same problems. Professor Davies describes a variety of projects which illustrate the interests of the field and highlight the marriage it offers between practical experience and theoretical understanding. The increasing emphasis of applied linguistics on ethicality is linked to the growth of professionalism and to the concern for accountability, manifested in the widening emphasis on critical stances. This, Davies argues, is at its most acute in the tension between giving advice as the outcome of research and taking political action in order to change a situation which, it is claimed, needs ameliorisation. This dilemma is not confined to applied linguistics and may now be endemic in the applied disciplines. The book has been updated throughout and provides an excellent introduction to the problems and issues that arise in the practice of applied linguistics. Key Features Surveys current issues in applied linguistics, including the concept of the Native Speaker and the development of World Englishes Examines the influence of linguistics, cognitive science and philosophy on applied linguistics and makes a contrast with educational linguistics Proposes that a key issue for the profession will increasingly be the tension between advice and action Suggests that applied linguistics is a theorising rather than a theoretical discipline. Feedback on the first edition: 'Alan Davies' introductory text forcefully re-echoes the famous Edinburgh series in applied linguistics, which he contributed to in a major way.' Applied Linguistics 'Every discipline coming of age needs to reflect on its origins, its history, its conflicts, in order to gain a better understanding of its identity and its long term objectives. Alan Davies, one of the founding fathers of applied linguistics, is the ideal person for this soul-searching exercise ... Introduction to Applied Linguistics is obligatory reading for students and researchers in applied linguistics, for language professionals and for anyone interested in the link between linguistics and applied linguistics.'

Conferencing and presentation English for young academics / Michael Guest
Singapore : Springer, 2018
236 pages. : illustrations
Ký hiệu phân loại (DDC): 418
This book discusses and demonstrates the types of English discourse used at academic conferences and offers guidance to prospective conference participants from multiple perspectives. It is a combination of research taken from numerous academic conferences attended and observations made by the author, based on well-established research methods in applied linguistics, as well as a guidebook aimed at students, ESP teachers, and young academics and professionals wishing to upgrade their skills to participate fruitfully in, and contribute to, academic conferences. It offers academic novices and non-native speakers of English in particular much that is new and practical, far beyond the realm of simple 'presentation tips'. It addresses various topics, such as chairing discussions, poster management, discussion sessions, the TED phenomenon, workshops, and the emerging field of English as a lingua franca. The style alternates between the accessible and practical, and the analysis of the linguistic categories underpinning the discourse: genre analysis, the nature of the specialist discourse community, features of academic spoken discourse, and the presentation as multimodal narrative are all explored. The book includes authentic samples of model speech discourse throughout, along with questions and exercises for deliberation or practice in each chapter.

Contrastive linguistics / Ping Ke
Singapore : Springer, 2019
xiii, 210 pages. ; 23 cm.
Ký hiệu phân loại (DDC): 418
This book serves as an introduction to contrastive linguistics - the synchronic study of two or more languages, with the aim of discovering their differences and similarities, especially the former, and applying these discoveries to related areas of language study and practice. It discusses the principles and methods, and contrasts English, Chinese, German, and other languages at phonological, lexical, grammatical, textual, and pragmatic levels, focusing more on the useful insights contrastive analysis provides into real-world problems in fields such as applied linguistics, translation and translation studies, English or Chinese as a foreign language, and communication than on the discipline itself.
