Current Perspectives on Teaching the Four Skills (2006, background): “For instance, according to Widdowson (1990, 2000, 2003) and Cook (1997, 1998) , learners in EFL settings, who in effect have few opportunities to interact with native speakers of English, do not need to be particularly concerned with the frequencies of linguistic features in native speaker corpora.”
A Positive Psychology perspective on Chinese EFL students’ trait emotional intelligence, foreign language enjoyment and EFL learning achievement (2019, methodology): “In fact, much initiative work had prepared the ground before the advent of Positive Psychology in the field of SLA (e.g. Arnold 1999; Cook 2000; Broner and Tarone 2001; Brantmeier 2003, 2005; Kramsch 2006; Götz et al. 2008; Imai 2010).”
Language play, a collaborative resource in children’s L2 learning (2005, background): “3 provides authentic language use situations and can be seen as linguistic preparation for conversations outside the classroom (Cook 2000; Sullivan 2000a).”
Learning about and through humor in the second language classroom (2009, background): “Currently, a growing body of research suggests that humorous language play is also likely to facilitate L2 learning (Cook, 2000; Sullivan, 2000; Tarone, 2000; Broner and Tarone, 2001; van Dam, 2002; Belz and Reinhardt, 2004; Bell, 2005).”
Is It Fun? Language Play in a Fifth‐Grade Spanish Immersion Classroom (2001, background): “The children have to use the L2 in its poetic (Cook, 2000) function in order to complete their assignment, with all the possibilities this presents for parody, satire, and ridicule—though it is entirely up to the students whether they take up those opportunities for ludic language play or not.”
Exploring L2 language play as an aid to SLL : A case study of humour in NS-NNS interaction (2005, background): “If language play is to be incorporated in any significant way into the L2 classroom, as suggested by Cook (2000) and by materials writers, such as Medgyes (2002), efforts must be made to determine more precisely what it can contribute to SLL.”
Assessing English vocabulary and enhancing young English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners’ motivation through games, songs, and stories (2014, background): “However, learning and playing in the language classroom has been heavily debated in terms of their appropriateness or seriousness in the formal and compulsory schooling context (Cook 2000; Paul 2003; Wood and Attfield 1996). Indeed, Cook (2000, 183) specifically notes that play and games are ‘often ”
Enhancing learning of children from diverse language backgrounds: Mother tongue-based bilingual or multilingual education in the early years (2010, background): “…understandings of language acquisition in childhood, it is important to clarify that both L1 and L2 acquisition by young children (up to about age 7) appear to diff er signifi cantly from language acquisition by older children (Bongartz & Schneider, 2003; Cook, 2000, Hatch, 1978; Liu, 1991).”
Repetition and Joking in Children’s Second Language Conversations: Playful Recyclings in an Immersion Classroom (2004, background): “This frame break involves a ‘phrase-level semantic contradiction’ (Cook, 2000) and is keyed as funny and playful in that Nok smiles and laughs as she delivers her joke (note also her body movements, and the marked tempo of the speech delivery of the ‘funny’ phrase, which apparently mark a redirectio”
