  8. SYLLABUS HIGHLIGHTS

  9. RCS Department on SLA • Language is an implicit mental representation • Explicitly teaching grammar rules (pedagogical rules) helps very little in second language acquisition • Especially since these pedagogical rules often have exceptions/are not always right • Being exposed to input (authentic examples of the target language) helps grow the mental representation • Our brains are language machines that, after having been exposed to sufficient amounts of input, are capable of working out how a language works on their own with better accuracy than pedagogical rules

  10. RCS Department on SLA • Communication is the expression and interpretation of meaning in a given context • Communication is purposeful • Communication may make use of language, but not necessarily • The most effective way to teach a language is to provide large amounts of input and provide situations where students must interpret meaning in the target language in order to achieve a goal.

  11.
