    Theories of Language Learning

    • Stephen Krashen's theory states that a student can learn a second language if the language components are not too complex nor too easy.
    • The natural order hypothesis states that grammatical structure proceeds in a predictable order, that is, some grammatical structures are to be acquired early and the others later.

    • The essence of metacognition includes reflecting, monitoring, self-questioning, and self-regulating.

    Language Teaching Approaches

    • The audio-lingual approach involves a lot of repetition of the second language grammatical forms especially those that are different from the learner's first language.
    • The communicative approach emphasizes the use of interaction in the target language and the introduction of authentic texts into a learning situation.
    • The direct approach never uses the first language because it emphasizes the natural dialogue in the second language.
    • The cooperative learning approach promotes positive interaction among students.

    Cultural Approach

    • The cultural approach in teaching language involves considering the learner's experiences in learning their own language and culture as a resource for learning a second language.
    • Much of the students' knowledge of their own culture is embedded in their first language.

    • CLT includes social interaction and socio-cultural theories.

    Language Acquisition Device (LAD)

    • Noam Chomsky's Language Acquisition Device (LAD) has led to an entirely new approach in the field of linguistics: generative phonology and transformational grammar.
    • The focus of this new approach is on the abstract "deep structure" of individual's native language.

    Adaptive Control of Thought (ACT) Model

    • Anderson's Adaptive Control of Thought (ACT) model has been influential in studies of cognitive development and second language acquisition.
    • The ACT model applies to the way people learn language as well as other human behavior.
    • The ACT model is more of informational processing that is based on the belief that all human knowledge can be divided into two irreducible kinds of representations, the declarative knowledge and procedural knowledge.

    Behaviorism Theory

    • The behaviorism theory emphasizes that any human behavior can be learned through a process of stimulus-response and positive or negative reinforcement.

    Academic Language Proficiency

    • Academic language proficiency includes knowledge of the less frequent vocabulary of the target language as well as the ability to interpret and produce increasingly complex written language.
