What is Applied Linguistics

ameliaj_gonzales1 — 2017-04-26 14:41:23 UTC

Applied Linguistics refers to the use of linguistics methods and theory in order to solve language related- problems, emphasasing in language teaching

What is the relationship between Linguistics and Applied Linguistics?

ameliaj_gonzales1 — 2017-04-26 14:43:13 UTC

Linguistics is a science that studies languages and has some subfields:PHONETICS, PHONOLOGY, MORPHOLOGY, SYNTAX, SEMANTICS, PRAGMATICS. While Applied linguistics can be applied to all aspectsof language use. It deals with mother, foreign, second language acquisition.

Classroom Applications of Vigotsky's Theory

ameliaj_gonzales1 — 2017-05-31 15:06:21 UTC

To put to work in a subject for example of explosion to two students, to the most applied and to the one who has problems in the learning. In this example both students will help each other to have a good exposition, the student more applied will explain better to the one who has learning problems so the student applied to explain a topic with his own words will understand the subject better and the less applied student will understand the subject With the explanations of his companion.

Classroom Applications of Skinner's Theory

According to the theory of skinner behavior we can use a motivation so that the student can respond better, the motivation can be, extra points, a cookie, symbols smiley faces.

Piaget's Language Theory

ameliaj_gonzales1 — 2017-06-19 02:46:15 UTC

As several studies have shown Piaget underestimated the abilities of children because his tests were sometimes confusing or difficult to understand (e.g. Hughes, 1975). Piaget failed to distinguish between competence (what a child is capable of doing) and performance (what a child can show when given a particular task). When tasks were altered, performance (and therefore competence) was affected. Therefore, Piaget may have underestimated children’s cognitive abilities.

For example a child might have object permanence (competence) but still not be able to search for objects (performance). When Piaget hid objects from babies he found that it wasn’t till after 9 months that they looked for it. However, Piaget relied on manual search methods – whether the child was looking for the object or not.

Later, research such as Baillargeon and Devos (1991) reported that infants as young as 4 months looked longer at a moving carrot that didn’t do what it expected, suggesting they had some sense of permanence, otherwise they wouldn’t have had any expectation of what it should or shouldn’t do.

COGNITIVE THEORY

ameliaj_gonzales1 — 2017-06-19 03:17:32 UTC

Pros:
-Has potential to provide more meaningful learning with a longer impact.
- Cognitive objectives are well suited for describing higher levels of learning.
Cons:
*Schemas help to make learning more meaningful,a learner is markedly at a disadvantage whenever relevant schemas or prerequisite knowledge don't exist.
* Beliefs are inly finite, pre-determined goals.
*Attitude "if it's not borke, don't fix it".

Noam Chomsky and Language Acquisition

ameliaj_gonzales1 — 2017-07-10 01:04:14 UTC

* Language is innate.

* All languages have grammar.
*All babies are born with a microchip in the brain allowing them to develop and compress language.

CONSTRUCTIVISM LEARNING THEORY

ameliaj_gonzales1 — 2017-07-10 01:18:38 UTC

1.- What is constructivism?
- Learning is an active, constructive process. The learner is an information constructor. People actively construct or create their own subjective representations of objective reality. New information is linked to prior knowledge, thus mental representations are subjective.
2.- How does this theory differ from traditional ideas about teaching and learning?
- Constructivism states that learning is an active, contextualized process of constructing knowledge rather than acquiring it. Knowledge is constructed based on personal experiences. Each person has a different interpretation and construction of knowledge process. The learner is not a blank slate but brings past experiences and cultural factors to a situation.
3.- How do you apply constructivism to your classroom?
- It could be to introduce their self, making them work in pairs and also to tell a funny traveling experience that they remember.
