researches and focuses on the developing
      knowledge and use of a language by
 children and adults who already know at
                least one other language.

view on first language. According to Chomsky every
        human being is biologically endowed with a
  language faculty, the language acquisition device,
         which is responsible for the initial state of
                             language development.
developed this theory in the 1970’s and
  presented in terms of five hypotheses The
   fundamental hypotheses is that there is a
difference between acquisition and learning
Cognitive Psychology Connectionism
            Multidimensional Model
Behaviorism dominated psychology and education
in the twentieth century. The behaviorism theory
     views the language as a set of structures and
                  acquisition as a habit formation
Cognitive psychologists hypothesized that
  second language acquisition , like other
learning , requires the learner’s attention
                               and effort .
The Connectionism theory tries to explain
SLA in terms of mental representations and
 information processing while rejecting the
            innate endowment hypothesis.
Model Originally developed as a result of
studies of the acquisition of German word
 order and later , on the basis of research
               with L2 learners of English .
Perspectives Some theorists who work primarily within a
    second language acquisition framework assume that a
great deal of language learning takes place through social
 interaction , at least in part because interlocutors adjust
      their speech to make it more accessible to learners.
It is argued that through dialogic
communication , learners jointly construct
   knowledge and this knowledge is later
            internalized by the individual.
In the 1970’s, a number of researchers began
   to call attention to the fact that, although
the language produced by L2 learners did not
              conform to the target language.
Second language acquisition studies
      were based in L1 acquisition.
Is a subtle and evolving aspect of l2
development. Learners do not simply
 transfer all patterns from L1 to L2 .
And Second Language Acquisition Instruction
          can have a significant effect on L2
     acquisition Instruction does not prevent
 learners from going through developmental
     stages. Certain kinds of instruction may
   appear to alter developmental path of L2
                                  acquisition.
