Understanding Second Language Processing : A Focus on Processability Theory By Bronwen Patricia Dyson; Gisela Håkansson
2017 | 225 Pages | ISBN: 9027243751 | EPUB | 1 MB
This book aims to help researchers and teachers interested in language processing and Processability Theory (PT) to understand this theory and its applications. PT is an influential account of second language processing which hypothesizes that, due to the architecture of language processing, learners acquire second languages in developmental stages. This book lays out PT's predictions and research on the development of diverse target languages - particularly English and Scandinavian languages - by learners of various categories. It discusses the typological issues facing PT and its contribution to an understanding of variation and cognitive constraints on pedagogy. However, the book also raises a critical eye to the literature which, after almost twenty years of evolution, requires explanation, clarification and, in some cases, extension. Why do some phenomena belong to different stages in different languages? Why are important types of variation under-represented? Is teaching as constrained as proposed in PT?
