  1. What SLA is and SLA goals Udenar- David Mrt2017

  2. SLA The systematic subject of how people acquire a second language (often referred to as an L2) It is a “recent” concern (2nd half of the 20th century)

  3. L2 ACQUISITION “It can be defined as the way in which people learn a language other than their mother tongue, inside or outside of classroom, and the study of this is known as “SLA”. (Rod Ellis,2003:3)

  4. SLA GOALS One of the the goals of SLA is the description of L2 Acquisition. i.e. Learners’ : Pronunciation, Accent changes, (over time) Vocabulary use Grammar use

  5. SLA GOALS Another goal is explanation of L2 acquisition: (external and internal factors that are involved in L2 learning) Social milieu in which learning occurs Input influence on learners Language aptitude (disposition to learn)

  6. SLA GOALS The goals of SLA, then, are to describe how L2 Acquisition proceeds and to explain this process and why some learners seem to better than others. (Rod Ellis,2003:4-6)

  7. Findings obtained (case studies) L2 Learners make errors of different kinds (grammar/sociolinguistic errors). L2 learners acquire formulaic chunks for communicative functions and develop fluency. L2 learners learn/acquire the language systematically ? (predictable order ?) (Rod Ellis,2003:4-6)
