Acquisition- Learning Hypothesis by Kelci Anderson https://padlet.com/kanderson461/kfo7f1du03j7kl5r Written Synopsis: Krashen's Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis of second language acquisition states that there are two processes involved in learning a new language: unconsciously (in language acquisition) and consciously (language learning). Both components are essential for second language acquisition. The comprehensible input that is targeted at a students' language development in their zone of proximal development needs to be focused on "messages that can be understood." While being immersed in a new language can include culture, the explicit instruction of phonics is also imperative so the language can be fully transferred to a students' long-term memory and applied in a social and academic setting. en-us 2023-11-14 16:46:37 UTC 2023-11-30 17:18:00 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f30e.png Video- 1:06-1:36 kanderson461 https://padlet.com/kanderson461/kfo7f1du03j7kl5r/wish/2789595997 2023-11-14 18:09:48 UTC https://padlet.com/kanderson461/kfo7f1du03j7kl5r/wish/2789595997 Analogy for the acquisition-learning hypothesis kanderson461 https://padlet.com/kanderson461/kfo7f1du03j7kl5r/wish/2789603808 Language Acquisition (subconscious learning) example: moving the Spain to learn Spanish- think complete immersion in the culture


Language Learning (conscious learning) example: taking a Spanish class and learning the structure of the language with tools like videos, books, flashcards, and dictionaries. This would also be our phonics time during the day- the systematic and explicit instruction is crucial for Multilingual learners

The focus should be on acquisition- input versus output

Acquisition has 3 phases:

1) aural

2) early speech production

3) speech activities following a natural progression


This progression is similar to a student's first language acquisition.

  • This video states that there are two distinct and independent ways of developing competence in a second language.

  • The first one is how language acquisition, and it is how language is "picked" up. This is a subconscious process that we are typically not aware of. For example, no one teaches us all the rules of language, we simply get a "feel" for correctness. Grammatical sentences sound or feel right, and errors feel wrong.

    • Language acquisition = acquired competence

  • the second one is language learning. This is conscious knowledge of a second language. It is knowing the rules and being aware of them, and being able to talk about them/teach them.

They suggest to focus more on the message rather than the language, choose only the important words, minimize explicit grammar teaching, and prioritize input over output.
