Behaviorist learning theory Behaviorist learning theory is a general theory of learning . it applies to all kinds of learning, not just language learning). It views learning as the formation of habits. The association of a particular response with a parti
6、cular stimulus constituted a habit. It is formed when a particular stimulus became regularly linked with a particular response. When applied to SLA, the process of second language acquisition is regarded as a process of habit formation.5. The causes of errors according to behaviorismDifferences betw

Transfer will be negative when there is proactive inhibition. In this case errors will result.Errors, accordi
8、ng to behaviorist theory, were the result of non-learning, rather than wrong learning.The means used to predict potential errors by behaviorists is Contrastive Analysis.6. StructuralismLanguage was viewed as a coded system consisting of structurally related elements (phonemes, morphemes, words, stru
9、ctures and sentence patterns)7. What is contrastive analysis (CA)Contrastive analysis is an inductive investigative approach based on the distinctive elements in a language. It involves the comparison of two or more languages or subsystems of languages in order to determine both the differences and
10、similarities between them. It could also be done within one language. Contrastive analysis can be both theoretical and applied according to varied purposes.8. Contrastive Analysis Hypothesis (CAH)Contrastive analysis is a way of comparing languages in order to determine potential errors for the ulti
11、mate purpose of isolating what needs to be learned and what does not need to be learned in an L2 situation.According to CAH, L2 errors are result of differences between the learners first language and the target language. The strong form of the hypothesis claims that these differences can be used to
12、 predict all errors that will occur. The weak form of the hypothesis claims that these differences can be used to identify some out of the total errors that actually arise. vs difficulty“Difference” is a linguistic concept, whereas “difficulty” is a psychological concept. Therefore, the level of lea

Definition of Error analysis (EA)the study and analysis of the errors made by second and foreign language learners (Longman Dictionary of Applied Linguistics, .It involves collecting samples o

Meta-cognitive strategiesMeta-cognitive strategy is the planning for learning, thinking about the learning process, monitoring of ones production or comprehension, and evaluating learning after an activity is completed.16. Cognitive strategiesCognitive strategies refer to

Definition interlanguageInterlanguage is the approximate language system that the learner constructs for use in communication through the target
24、 language. (Larry Selinker)It is independent of both the learners first language and the target language.It suggests that learners language is between L1 AND L2 and that it is a continuum along which all learners traverse. of fossilizationFossilization refers to the state in which the second languag
25、e learners stop to learning when their internalized rule system contains rules different from the target language. That is to say, the interlanguage stops evolving towards the TL.21. Classification of fossilizationTemporary fossilization: the phenomenon is alterable under certain conditions.Permanen
26、t fossilization This means the learners language stops evolving forever. Because stable stage is not real fossilization, so there is no real permanent fossilization.22. Causes of fossilizationInternal: Motivation; Communicative needs; Acquisition deviceExternal: Communicative pressure Lack of learni

Definition of UGCook(1985) summarizing the Chomskyan position, defines universal grammar as the properties inherent in the human
28、 mind. Universal grammar consists of a set of general principles that apply to all language rather than a set of particular rules.24. Markedness Markedness refers to the idea that some linguistic structures are special or less natural or less basic than others. Linguists working in the Chomskyan sch

Core rules are considered to be unmarked and therefore easily acquired.Periphery roles are considered to be and therefore different to learn.25. Krashens Monitor Model Krashen
30、s monitor model mainly consists of the following five hypothses:(1) Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis: there are two kinds of ways of learning a second language ,., acquisition and learning. (2) Natural Order Hypothesis: SLA follows a universal route that is not influenced by factors such as the learn
31、ers first language, age, and the context (classroom or natural setting).Implications:Errors are developmental and are a natural byproduct of learning tolerate them.Allow learners to make errors and do not correct them (3) The Input Hypothesis cIt laims a move along the developmental continuum by rec

We acquire, only when we understand the structure that is “a little beyond” where we are nowComprehensible input is defined as L2 input just beyond the Learners current L2 competence, in terms of its syntactic complexity. If a learners current competence is i then comprehensible input is i+1. Input which is either too simple (i) or too complex (i+2/3/4) will not
