1、二语习得 对比概念汇总对比概念 1. Audiolingual approach: audioligual teaching is based on the behaviourist theory of learning and on structural linguistics. This instructional approach emphasizes the formation of habits through the practice, memorization, and repetition of grammatical structures in isolation from
2、each other and from contexts of meaningful use. Communicative language teaching: (CLT) CLT is based on the premise that successful language learning involves not only a knowledge of the structures and forms of a language, but also the functions and purposes that a language serves in different commun
3、icative settings. This approach on teaching emphasizes the communication of meaning over the practice and manipulation of grammar forms. 2. Behaviourism: a psychological theory that all learning, whether verbal or non-verbal, takes place through the establishment of habits. Connectionism: A theory w
4、hich views language as a complex system of units which become interconnected in the mind as they are encountered together. The more often units are heard or seen together, the more likely it is that the presence of one will lead to the activation of the other. Innatism: A theory that human beings ar
5、e born with some basic knowledge about languages in general that makes it possible to learn the specific language of the environment. Interactionism: A theory that language is based on learners innate abilities and on opportunities to engage in conversations, often those in which other speakers modi
6、fy their speech to match the learners communication requirements. 3. Competence : Chomsky used this item to refer to knowledge of language. It refers to the knowledge which underlies our ability to use language. Performance: The language that we actually use in listening, speaking, reading, writing.
7、 Performance is subject to variations due to inattention on fatigue whereas competence, at least for the mature native speaker, is more stable. 4. Comprehension-based instruction: A general term to describe a variety of second 对比概念 language programs in which the focus of instruction is on comprehens
8、ion rather than production (for example, Total Physical Response). Content-based instruction: Second language programs in which lessons are organized around topics, themes, and/or subject matter rather than language points (for example, French immersion programs). Form-focused instruction: Instructi
9、on which draws attention to the forms and structures of the language within the context of communicative interaction. This may be done by giving metalinguistic information, simply highlighting the form in question, or by providing corrective feedback. Meaning-based instruction: communicative languag
10、e teaching (CLT): CLT is based on the premise that successful language learning involves not only a knowledge of the structures and forms of a language, but also the functions and purposes that a language serves in different communicative settings. This approach to teaching emphasizes the communicat
11、ion of meaning over the practice and manipulation of grammatical forms. Task-based instruction: Instruction in which classroom activities are tasks similar to those which learners might engage in outside the second or foreign language classroom. Tasks may be complex, for example, creating a school n
12、ewspaper, or more limited, for example, making a phone call to reserve a train ticket. 5. Cross-sectional study: A research method in which subjects at different ages and stages of development are studied. Inferences about sequences which would apply to the development of individual learners are som
13、etimes drawn from cross-sectional studies. This contrasts with longitudinal studies. Longitudinal studies: A study in which the same learners are studied over a period of time. This contrasts with a cross-sectional study. 6. Descriptive study: Research which does not involve any manipulation, change
14、, or intervention in the phenomenon being studied. This researchers goal is to observe and record what is happening. This contrasts with experimental study. 对比概念 Experimental study: Research which is designed to study the role or impact of one or more very specific variables. A strictly experimental
15、 study would have experimental and control groups which differ from each other only in the presence or absence of one variable. In educational research, it is often difficult to create all of the conditions which permit a study to be termed as a genuine experimental study. In this book, the term is
16、used in a non-technical sense to refer to research in which an attempt has been made to investigate a single variable in an educational setting. 7. Developmental features: those aspects of a language whichdevelop in a particular sequence, regardless of input variation or instructional intervention.
17、Variational features: variation features(for example, vocabulary, some grammatical morphemes) can be learned at any point in the learners development. 8. Display question: A question to which the asker already knows the answer. Teacher often ask these question (for example, What colour is your shirt
18、?) not because they are genuinely interested in the answer, but rather, to get the learner to display his or her knowledge of the language. Genuine question: In contrast to display questions, genuine questions are asked when there is a focus on information: the asker does not know the answer in adva
19、nce (for example, What did you do at the weekend?) 9. Field independent learning style: learnersare very quick to pick out the hidden figures in a complicated drawing. Field dependent learning style: learner is inclined to see the whole picture rather than separating it into parts 10. First language
20、:The language first learned. Second language: any language other than the first language learned. 11. Formal language learning setting: A setting in which second language learners receive instruction and opportunities to practice. Efforts are often made to develop 对比概念 learners awareness of how the
21、language system works. Typically, this type of learning takes place in the classroom. Informal language learning setting: A setting in which the second language is not taught, but rather, is learned naturally. 12. Integrate motivation: A motivation based on a desire to know more about the culture an
22、d community of the target language group and even a desire to be more like members of that group. Instrumental motivation: A motivation which is more practical, such as the need to learn the language in order to get a better job. 13. Language acquisition: It represents unconscious learning, which ta
23、kes place when attention is focused on meaning rather than language form. Language learning: It is a conscious process which occurs when the learners objective is to learn about the language itself, rather than to understand messages which are conveyed through the language. 14. Modified input: Adapt
24、ed speech which adults use to address children and native speakers use to address language learners so that the learner will be able to understand. Comprehensible input: A term refers to language which a learner can understand. It may be comprehensible in part because of clues such as gestures, situ
25、ations, or prior information. 15. Visual learners: those who cannot learn something until they have seen it. Aural learners: those who seem to need only to hear something once or twice before they know it. Kinaesthetic learners: those who need to add a physical action to the learning process. 16. Sequential bilinguals: learners who begin to learn a second language later Simultaneous bilinguals: learner, usually children, who hear more than one language virtually from birth;
