Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis

Page 3: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis

Krashen’s Monitor Model proposed that only “acquisition” or subconsciously acquired knowledge leads to productive output; “learning,” the learner’s conscious knowledge of the rules of a language, only serves as a monitor.

Page 4: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

Affective Filter Hypothesis

Page 5: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

Affective Filter Hypothesis

A hypothesis of the Monitor Model suggesting an affective filter can block access to language acquisition under certain conditions, such as when the learner is stressed or anxious.

Page 6: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

automatic processing

Page 7: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

automatic processing

In an information-processing view, this occurs when a skill becomes practiced and can be carried out relatively rapidly and without conscious effort or short-term memory limitations.

Page 8: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

cognitive linguistics

Page 9: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

cognitive linguistics (CL)

An approach viewing meaning as central to language; language is seen as inextricably linked to cognition.

Page 10: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

complex adaptive system (CAS)

Page 11: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

complex adaptive system (CAS)

The view that language is acquired and develops through the combined influences of social interaction and cognitive processes.

Page 12: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

Comprehensible Input Hypothesis

Page 13: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

Comprehensible Input Hypothesis

Monitor Model hypothesis stating that the most effective way to increase L2 competence is by exposure to “comprehensible input” (one level beyond the learner’s current level).

Page 14: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

Comprehensible Output Hypothesis

Page 15: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

Comprehensible Output Hypothesis

Swain (1985) proposed that having to produce the L2 encourages the learner to attend to the language and thereby leads to improved proficiency.

Page 16: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

contrastive analysis

Page 17: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

contrastive analysis

The comparison of the linguistic structures of two or more languages, to determine their similarities and differences. In 1950s and 1960s, it was used as a tool for L2 teaching.

Page 18: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

Contrastive Analysis Hypothesis (CAH)

Page 19: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

Contrastive Analysis Hypothesis(CAH)

In the strong form, this predicts that where there are similarities between the two languages, the learner will acquire L2 structures with ease; where there are differences, the learner will have difficulty.

Page 20: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

controlled processing

Page 21: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

controlled processing

In an information-processing view, controlled processing characterizes new skill learning, is comparatively slow and effortful, and is limited by short-term memory constraints.

Page 22: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

cross-linguistic influence (CLI)

Page 23: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

cross-linguistic influence(CLI)

Refers to instances of phonological, lexical, grammatical, or other aspects of transfer from one language to another.

Page 24: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

developmental error

Page 25: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

developmental error

An error in learner language which does not result from transfer from the first language, but which reflects the learner’s gradual discovery of the L2 system.

Page 26: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

Error Analysis (EA)

Page 27: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

Error Analysis (EA)

An approach to L2 acquisition research involving the description and classification of errors to gain insight into the learner's current underlying knowledge of the L2 system.

Page 28: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

explicit knowledge

Page 29: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

explicit knowledge

In SLA, knowledge of the L2 (vocabulary, grammar rules, etc.) of which learners are explicitly aware.

Page 30: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

explicit learning

Page 31: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

Learning with explicit awareness of what is being learned.

Page 32: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

implicit knowledge

Page 33: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

In SLA, knowledge of the L2 that underlies the learner’s performance, but of which he or she is not explicitly aware.

Page 34: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

implicit learning

Page 35: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

implicit learning

Learning without awareness of what is being learned.

Page 36: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

information-processing approach (cognitive approach)

Page 37: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

information-processing approach (or cognitive approach)

Stemming from cognitive psychology, this approach emphasizes that the mental processes used for interpreting experience are also involved in the acquisition and use of a second language.

Page 38: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

input processing (IP)

Page 39: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

input processing (IP)

Model proposed by VanPatten on how learners make form-meaning connections: learners have limited processing capacity so give priority to meaning.

Page 40: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

intake

Page 41: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

intake

The part of input that the learner notices.

Page 42: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

Interaction Hypothesis

Page 43: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

Interaction Hypothesis

Hypothesis proposed by Long (1983) predicting that interactional modification makes input comprehensible; comprehensible input promotes acquisition; therefore, interactional modification promotes acquisition.

Page 44: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

interlanguage

Page 45: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

interlanguage

A term for the language produced by a learner that differs in systematic ways from that of a native speaker.

Page 46: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

language acquisition device

Page 47: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

An element that UG linguists originally proposed as an innate component, or mental organ, to account for language acquisition.

Page 48: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

Monitor Model

Page 49: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

Monitor Model

Krashen’s model of second language acquisition based on the concept that learners have two systems (acquisition and learning) and that the learned system acts as a monitor (editor) on the acquired system.

Page 50: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

Natural Order Hypothesis

Page 51: Chapter 4 Key Concepts. Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis.

Natural Order Hypothesis

Monitor Model hypothesis stipulating that language elements are acquired in an essentially fixed, pre-determined order.
