A Dynamical System Approach to Research in Second Language Acquisition
Epistemologically speaking, second language acquisition research (SLAR) might be reconsidered from a complex dynamical system view with interconnected aspects in the ecosystem of language acquisition. The present paper attempts to introduce the tenets of complex system theory and its application in SLAR. It has been suggested that the present dominant traditions in language acquisition research...

متن کاملTeaching approaches to Computer Assisted Language Learning
Computers have been used for language teaching ever since the 1960's.Learning a second language is a challenging endeavor, and, for decades now, proponents of computer assisted language learning (CALL) have declared that help is on the horison. We investigate the suitability of deploying speech technology in computer based systems that can be used to teach foreign language skills. In this case,...
متن کاملMain Second Language Acquisition Theories: from Structuralism to Complexity
This article presents a literature review of the main second language acquisition (SLA) theories. It first deals with the very beginning of SLA studies in the middle of the 20 th century, focusing on the studies of Fries and Lado, and then moves on to describe some of the theoretical proposals over the past four decades. Ten theories are briefly described: the structural or behaviorist approach...
