Introduction Q1. What is second language acquisition? Q2. Is there such a unified theory? III.  Contrasts The Input Hypothesis (i+1) while most controlled processes are focal, some ,like child first language learning or the learning of skills without any instruction, can be peripheral. similarly, most automatic processes are peripheral, but some can be focal. Q. How does Mclaughlin’s model apply to practical aspects of learning a second language? Bialystok modified her framework for conceptualizing SLA. The modification consisted of hypothesizing a two-dimensional framework in which analysis and automaticity can interact, but her use of the latter term differs from Mclaughlin’s. In her first factor-analysis-mental representations can be either unanalyzed or analyzed. On the other hand, learners are overtly aware of the structure of analyzed knowledge. Variability Models One of the most interesting current debates in SLA theory centers on the extent to which the variability manifested in the inter-language competence of learners can be systematically explained. The essence of the problem is that learners can and do exhibit a tremendous degree of variation in the way they speak (and write) second languages. IV. The Believing and Doubting Games V. From Theory to Practice As we look back over the last 100 years if language teaching there are some revolutions apparent in that history . Q. How might those approaches be described? As you develop an enlightened approach to the language
