CONTRASTIVE ANALYSIS
Learners come to the task of SLA as blank slates
FALSE
Are interference and cross-linguistic influence the same?
No
Inteference is negative
Negation and question formation in SLA are.....................
almost identical to FLA. Where there are differences they can be attributed to L1
AVOIDANCE AND OVERUSE are two examples of .................
NEGATIVE TRANSFER MISTAKES
The logical problem of language acquisiton is still an issue in SLA
NO-
Fossilization
how do I+1 and modified input differ?
modified input: changes in intonation, pace of delivery, lexis, simple grammar, etc
FOSSILIZATION happens when.............
the interlanguage stops developing
The............................................contends that the nature of language in natives is fundamentally different from the nature of language in nonnatives , because the process of language acquisition is different in both cases.
FUNDAMENTAL DIFFERENCE HYPOTHESIS
Krashen's model of SLA consists of 5 hypotheses that can be tested empirically
FALSE
What analogy do cognitivists use when refering to learning/ learning a language?
CAR
Some of the questions that researchers ask themselves when they study SLA are...................( mention 2 at least)
Are there developmental sequences in SLA too?
What role does the environment play in SLA?
How much influence does the amount of exposure to target language have?How does instruction help SLA?
How much influence does error correction have? When/how much should teachers correct ?
.....................is the type of linguistic system used by second language learners who are in the process of learning a target language.
INTERLANGUAGE
The difference between SLA and FLA for cognitivists lies in the conditions under which language acquisition take place
TRUE
Some of the similarities between FLA and SLA are....................................( mention 2 at least)
Learners don’t acquire language overnight: STAGES/ DEVELOPMENTAL
There's a creative component in SLA too
Learners construct grammars along the process
In cognitivism, ......................refers to knowledge about a language, while ........................refers to knowledge of the language
DECLARATIVE KNOWLEDGE
PROCEDURAL KNOWLEDGE
During the process of SLA learners first pay attention to form, not to meaning, because the processing capacity is limited.
FALSE ( first meaning- then form)
