Abstract

Classroom second language teaching and learning remain primarily a social endeavor pursued by many learners under the auspices of an educational institution through language programs of various types and sizes. Language learning can be pursued for a variety of reasons, but one of the most common is to connect with other human beings. However, it remains a formidable task for those who begin the process after childhood and in a formal classroom setting. Like an iceberg, the teaching and learning that take place in language classrooms represent only the proverbial tip of a large number of inputs, considerations, and circumstances affecting instructional practice.
