摘要

This paper aims to disclose the recent social turn of language learning. It consists of three main parts: (1) literacy, (2) discourse, and (3) second language learning. The first section involves the research on literacy, focusing on the movement from the Great Divide theory to social literacy. The second part traces the changes of the concept of discourse, including discourse as text, discourse as genre, and discourse as a social practice. The final session sketches second language learning research, fleshing out the social background, situated learning, and social identities. All in all, the literature review aims to better the educators' and policy makers' understanding of the social aspects of second language learning.

本文旨在闡明近代語言學習理論的走向，由三大部分組成，分別探究素養(literacy)，論述(discourse)，以及第二語言學習(second language learning)的社會面向。首節聚焦素養研究，淺述社會素養取代鴻溝理論(The Great Divide theories)的過程。第二節討論「論述」的概念演變：由文本、文種、推展至社群實踐。第三節探究第二語言學習，簡介其歷史背景，進而細論情境學習及社會身分認同的理論與研究。本文拋磚引玉，期待協助語言教師與決策階層了解第二語言學習之社會面向。
