- W2155483432 abstract "I was grabbed early (by vocabulary) and never let go. That's why it's difficult to explain why I enjoy working in this area. I just love doing it, said Paul Nation (in Coxhead, 2005, p. 46). How many people get grabbed by an area of research, teaching, and learning that continues to engage interest and cause excitement after 30 years? In this article, I look at Paul Nation's ongoing contributions to pedagogy in vocabulary and second language reading. I will focus on key questions from Nation's research that support learning and teaching and contribute to our understanding of the lexical nature of texts. There are several reasons for writing about Paul Nation's contributions to second language vocabulary and reading. Firstly, Paul's work has inspired or sparked the research reported in this special issue. Secondly, postgraduate students, language teaching colleagues, and language students have all been party to research into pedagogy either carried out by Nation or inspired by him. A major part of Paul's contribution to the field is his commitment to developing and supporting new researchers. Thirdly, some readers may be familiar with his work in one area but not others. And finally, Paul is retiring in 2010. The inverted commas are necessary because he is continuing to research, supervise postgraduate students, and contribute to the field of applied linguistics in his retirement, which means he will be busier than ever. Narrowing the focus of this article to Nation's contributions in vocabulary and second language reading is not an easy task. He has a much wider range of interest in applied linguistics and TESOL, with an enviable depth and breadth of experience in research, postgraduate supervision, teaching, and language learning. In the School of Linguistics and Applied Language Studies at Victoria University a few years ago, Paul was good-naturedly asked to leave a peer support research group after one meeting because he was too productive. His side of the story was that he could have achieved far more in the time it took to attend the meeting. Those achievements would have included mentoring and publishing with many colleagues and postgraduate students, as can be seen in the reference list of this article. Paul's generosity in this way is legendary." @default.
