Language in Action: SFL Theory across Contexts is a comprehensive collection of recent research that explores the application of Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) in various educational contexts. The book brings together scholars from diverse international backgrounds, providing fresh insights into curriculum and instructional issues in subjects such as history, physical education, mathematics, and language learning.

The chapters in this volume examine the development of students' reading, writing, and disciplinary literacy skills, with a particular emphasis on Spanish, Danish, and English as the languages of instruction. The translation studies section offers novel perspectives on translation from classical Chinese literature and Italian museum texts.

Throughout the book, the chapters present innovative approaches to genre pedagogy, the pedagogical and methodological uses of SFL metalanguage, and curriculum development and school-based research. The authors employ functional grammar, register theory, Appraisal, and Legitimation Code Theory to offer new analytic approaches and insights.

This book serves as a valuable resource for researchers and students interested in exploring new applications of systemic functional linguistics in education. It offers a diverse range of work that can inspire and inform scholars seeking to advance their understanding of language and its role in learning and teaching.
