Abstract

Abstract The language teaching landscape in Ireland has changed considerably over the last 30 years as a result of substantial and sustained inward migration into the country during this period. These social and demographic developments have added to the country's already bilingual context and created a much more varied multilingual landscape than had existed in previous decades. They have also impacted various aspects of language teaching policy, provision and methods for both indigenous and foreign languages. This article reviews research on language teaching and learning in Ireland published during the period 2012–2021. We discuss relevant work disseminated primarily in peer-reviewed journals (national and international), as well as in books, commissioned reports and chapters in edited volumes. The research and policy documents presented concern the teaching and learning of Irish, English and Modern Foreign Languages as second and/or additional languages across all levels of education. They address language teacher training contexts as well. We believe that this review of research demonstrates the extent to which recent inquiries in these domains have advanced knowledge and practice in the Irish context, and have also informed the international research community more generally.

爱尔兰的语言教学：2012-2011

在过去的30年里，由于大量和持续的移民进入爱尔兰，爱尔兰的语言教学环境发生了很大的变化。这些社会和人口发展增加了该国已经双语的背景，并创造了比过去几十年更加多样化的多语言景观。它们还影响了土著语言和外语的语言教学政策、规定和方法的各个方面。本文回顾了2012-2021年期间发表的关于爱尔兰语言教学的研究。我们主要讨论在同行评审期刊(国内和国际)以及书籍、委托报告和编辑卷中的章节中传播的相关工作。所提出的研究和政策文件涉及在各级教育中将爱尔兰语、英语和现代外语作为第二语言和/或额外语言的教学和学习。它们也涉及语言教师培训的背景。我们认为，这项研究综述表明，在爱尔兰背景下，这些领域的最新调查在多大程度上具有先进的知识和实践，并且也更普遍地告知了国际研究界。

期刊介绍： Language Teaching is the essential research resource for language professionals providing a rich and expert overview of research in the field of second-language teaching and learning. It offers critical survey articles of recent research on specific topics, second and foreign languages and countries, and invites original research articles reporting on replication studies and meta-analyses. The journal also includes regional surveys of outstanding doctoral dissertations, topic-based research timelines, theme-based research agendas, recent plenary conference speeches, and research-in-progress reports. A thorough peer-reviewing procedure applies to both the commissioned and the unsolicited articles.
