The 12 issues of the second language teaching and research journal, spanning 1988-1993 contain articles on a variety of language teaching and learning issues. A substantial proportion concern English-as-a-Second-Language instruction, both general and academic, in a number of Southeast Asian cultural contexts. Regional variations of English are also discussed in several articles. Other topics, relating to both English language teaching and language instruction in general, include development and assessment of specific language skills (reading, writing, listening, vocabulary), instruction in grammatical structures and concepts, selection of appropriate instructional materials, language and educational attitudes within specific cultures or groups, peer evaluation, language test types and formats, classroom instructional techniques, cognitive style, language styles, issues in the development of comprehension, teacher interpretation of curricula, class size, feedback, and bilingual education. Most issues contain a review of recent language research in Southeast Asia. In addition, book reviews and new publications lists are included in each issue. (MSE)
