The area of Second Language Studies includes research into how second languages are learned, taught and used. Second language acquisition is a complex behaviour that involves the knowledge of linguistic, cognitive, social and cultural elements of the target language and the skill to exploit this knowledge in real-time performance. This research area examines second language acquisition in the classroom, with a particular focus on identifying the conditions responsible for successful learning outcomes, as well as on the characterisation and measurement of language proficiency. Second language use in interpersonal and social contexts is also investigated. This includes discourse processes, pragmatics, and the role of second language in society. Projects in the area have a strong record of on-going research and industry funding. Research in Second Language Studies is centred around three subthemes of Classroom second language learning; Second language testing and measurement; and Second language use.]]> 2018-05-24 10:35:24 UTC https://padlet.com/uniqld/j5fcxqpd0rl/wish/263296415 Independent Schools QLD a_diaz3 https://padlet.com/uniqld/j5fcxqpd0rl/wish/263297603 2018-05-24 10:41:41 UTC https://padlet.com/uniqld/j5fcxqpd0rl/wish/263297603 Brisbane Catholic Education a_diaz3 https://padlet.com/uniqld/j5fcxqpd0rl/wish/263297644 2018-05-24 10:41:55 UTC https://padlet.com/uniqld/j5fcxqpd0rl/wish/263297644 Japan Foundation a_diaz3 https://padlet.com/uniqld/j5fcxqpd0rl/wish/263302435 2018-05-24 11:05:20 UTC https://padlet.com/uniqld/j5fcxqpd0rl/wish/263302435 Education Queensland a_diaz3 https://padlet.com/uniqld/j5fcxqpd0rl/wish/263303230 2018-05-24 11:09:49 UTC https://padlet.com/uniqld/j5fcxqpd0rl/wish/263303230 UQ STRATEGIC PLAN 2018-2021 a_diaz3 https://padlet.com/uniqld/j5fcxqpd0rl/wish/263304911 2018-05-24 11:18:07 UTC https://padlet.com/uniqld/j5fcxqpd0rl/wish/263304911 WHO is the 21st Century Language Learner? a_diaz3 https://padlet.com/uniqld/j5fcxqpd0rl/wish/263310450 2018-05-24 11:44:07 UTC https://padlet.com/uniqld/j5fcxqpd0rl/wish/263310450 UQ STRATEGIC PLAN 2018-20 a_diaz3 https://padlet.com/uniqld/j5fcxqpd0rl/wish/263315642 2018-05-24 12:04:10 UTC https://padlet.com/uniqld/j5fcxqpd0rl/wish/263315642 UQ STUDEN STRATEGY 2016-2020 a_diaz3 https://padlet.com/uniqld/j5fcxqpd0rl/wish/263316543 2018-05-24 12:07:56 UTC https://padlet.com/uniqld/j5fcxqpd0rl/wish/263316543 21st Century language learner https://padlet.com/uniqld/j5fcxqpd0rl/wish/263507439 blogs as a 21st century pedagogy -collaborative learner]]> 2018-05-25 00:18:42 UTC https://padlet.com/uniqld/j5fcxqpd0rl/wish/263507439 dian0007 https://padlet.com/uniqld/j5fcxqpd0rl/wish/263508379 2018-05-25 00:24:51 UTC https://padlet.com/uniqld/j5fcxqpd0rl/wish/263508379 SLS SEMINAR SERIES a_diaz3 https://padlet.com/uniqld/j5fcxqpd0rl/wish/263510897 Possibly Friday 10:30
