Moving from the influence of gesture on cognitive processes such as attention, memory, problem solving and reasoning, it will be shown the functions of gesture in language teaching in order to underline the necessity to make teachers of second language more aware of the use of gesture as strategy for teaching.File in questo prodotto:
