Course Description
The course focuses on the theories and perspectives related to second language acquisition including behavioural, developmental, cognitive, social-cognitive, constructivist, and sociocultural learning theories. The course aims to familiarize students with some well-known facts about how second languages are learned or acquired. By the end of the module students should be able to 1) describe some of the ways in which learners develop knowledge of a target second language, 2) have a clear understanding of some of the topics which have been addressed by researchers who have studied second language learner development, and 3) assess some of the theories which have been proposed to account for second language development.
