Learning languages in study abroad and at home contexts: a critical review of comparative studies

In the last two decades numerous studies have been conducted to document the language learning gains in a second language (L2) thought to be prompted by study abroad (SA) programs. Although different research syntheses have been attempted to take stock of the findings involved, no review to date has...

Aunque algunas revisiones han intentado hacer balance de la investigación en el área, no se ha llevado a cabo ninguna revisión con la idea de analizar aquellos estudios en los que se han comparado los efectos de las estancias en el extranjero con la instrucción formal en el país de origen. La presente revisión tiene como fin identificar los estudios que han adoptado un enfoque comparativo, así como evaluar de forma crítica las dimensiones analizadas, la metodología empleada y los principales resultados reportados. También se discuten algunos aspectos metodológicos que deberían considerarse al llevar a cabo futuras investigaciones en el área.Universidad de Granada201820182010info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10230/35416reponame:Recercat.
