Key questions which are answered include:
• How many words should students learn at a time,
and how often?
• How much classroom time should be spent teaching
vocabulary?
• What is the best way to group vocabulary for learning?
• Is it useful to provide students with the L1 translations of
unknown words?

practices, but also new evidence that challenges old ideas.
