It has been indicated that individual
differences play an important role in
language teaching and learning
should not be neglected

2. MODELS OF SLA AND THEIR VARIABLES
INDIVIDUAL OUTCOMES
DISTINGUISHES BETWEEN INDIVIDUAL- ASSUMES AN
RELATED VARIABLES AND OTHER
INTERRELATIONSHIP
VARIABLES
Eg, social (environmental) variables, BETWEEN INDIVIDUAL
contextual variables VARIABLES
And regards their effect as independent
Of one another
(the ‘Good Language Learner model,
monitor theory model, framework and
Levin’s schematic model)

3. The ‘Good Language Learner’ model
(proposed by Naiman et al (1978)
Three independent variables (teaching, learner, context & Two dependent variables
(learning, outcomes)

4. MONITOR THEORY
The monitor theory consists of five hypotheses.
(Krashen et al)
(3)The acquisition-learning hypothesis
(4)The natural order hypothesis
(5)The monitor hypothesis
(6)The input hypothesis
(7)The affective filter hypothesis
The affective filter hypothesis is the most relevant as
the source of learner-related output variation.

The affective filter is a major source of variation; the success of language learning varies depending on
several factors embraced within the affective filter such as attitude, motivation, self-confidence and/or
anxiety this theory postulates that the affective filter may cause the quality of acquisition to be higher
or lower

6. BROWN AND FRASER’S FRAMEWORK (1979)
Situation
Scene Participants
Individuals Relationship
Setting (eg Purpose (eg,
Bystandars between
Buying,lectu
, locale and individuals (eg,
ring or
time Shared
playing a Indidual as knowledge,
game Individual qua member of a power
individual (eg, social
Personality, category (eg,
attitude Class,
ethnicity

7. BROWN & FRASER’S FRAMEWORK
Examines how individual situational variables
affect language choice

8. LEVIN’S SCHEMATIC MODEL
FOCUS INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES IN OUTPUT
PROPOSES TWO MAJOR STAGES: DIAGNOSTIC &
PRESCRIPTIVE
HIS MODEL  FOCUSED TWO VARIABLES: INPUT &
OUTPUT
“Input variables refer to variables that differentiate
between learners in terms of the traits, abilities, and
prerequisites that are related to successful output-
task performance” (Levin: 1977:29)

outcomes for the learners

13. FIVE FEATURES OF SPOLSKY’S MODEL
• Combining in a single theory all aspects of SL/FL learning 
unabashed immodesty.
• A restriction to the specific domain of SL learning and focus on
individual differences.
• An assumption that “all many parts (variables) of the model
apply to specific kind of learning, and that there is a close
interaction among various parts (variables) of the model.
• A spirit of eclectisism seems to underlie Spolsky’s model.
• The model recognises the importance and existence of ‘social
context’ as an important domain affecting learning outcomes.

14. INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES
AGE : older children (11-15) perform better in
production of correct morphology and syntax, and
younger children (6-10) possess better English
pronunciation (Fathman: 1975).
Krashen et al (1979) conclude that (1) adults proceed
through early stages of syntactic and morphological
development faster than children,(2) older children
acquire faster than younger children, (3) acquirers who
begin natural exposure to SL during childhood generally
achieve higher SL proficiency than those beginning
adults.

15. ATTITUDE: A student who has a negative attitude
toward learning a target language is not normally,
interested in following a lesson or program. Successful
SL acquisition may depend on the attitude that a
language learner brings to the situation (Henning:
1983). According to Randhawa and Korpan (1973),
there are four classifications of attitude: (1)
utilitarian, attitude related to usefulness of learning,
(2) aestheticism, attitude related to the appreciation
of the language, (3) tolerance, attitude reflecting an
accepting attitude rather than any direct positive
orientation toward learning, (4) specific factor,
attitude related to specific, normally single item.

16. MOTIVATION:Motivation is the extent to which learners
make choicec about (a) goal to pursue and (b) the effort
they devote to that pursuit(Brown:1994)
Three points to be noted : (1) the nature of the source of
stimulation, (2) the strength of the intention of doing
something to achieve a goal, (3) the nature of the goal or
goals.
INTELLIGENCE: IQ as a variable in language learning context
is still worthwhile, but not a variable in isolation (Spolsky:
1989)
LERNING APTITUDE
PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE
FAMILIARITY WITH COMPUTERS
INTERACTION WITH NATIVE SPEAKERS OF ENGLISH
LANGUAGE USED FOR INTERACTION WITH COMMUNITY

17. CONCLUSION
Despite the fact that not all studies on the
relationship between individual-related
variables and language learning
achievement have revealed similar findings,
the majority of studies indicate that these
variables significantly affect language
learning achievement
