A Proportional Perspective of the World's Native Languages
This fascinating infographic by Alberto Lucas López shows how 23 of the world’s mother tongues are proportioned, and how they’re distributed around the globe. Of the 7,102 languages around today, a mere 23 of them are the mother tongue of 50 million people or more. These select languages are spoken by a total of 4.1 billion people. http://io9.gizmodo.com/a-proportional-perspective-of-the-worlds-spoken-languag-1710032349?utm_medium=sharefromsite&utm_source=io9_facebook
How to boost your students’ vocabulary whilst creating a positive learning environment
It is undeniable that a positive and enjoyable learning environment in which the students feel safe, respected, validated, liked and listened to by their teacher and peers, benefits language acquisition in many ways, both in terms of motivation and in reducing learner anxiety – the number-one inhibitor of language learning according to much research. To create such an environment is a pedagogic imperative, whatever methodology or theory of L2 learning one espouses. https://gianfrancoconti.wordpress.com/2017/05/14/how-to-boost-your-students-vocabulary-whilst-creating-a-positive-learning-environment-with-minimal-preparation/
