Competence to develop:
To demonstrate an understanding of the psychological and social
processes underlying acquisition and use of a foreign language.
Topics to develop:
To analyze the pedagogical practice in educative environments
Steps, phases of the learning strategy to develop
Phase 1
You must read carefully the contents of Unit 2 Learning trends in
Foreign Language.
Phase 2
Task 3 Observational Practice Step 2 - Observation Matrix.
You must analyze the groups previously observed and interpret the
following information about some specific details regarding their
learning process. The matrix you will use is in the practical environment
- practical activities under the name Task 3 Observational Practice Step
2 - Observation Matrix.
Phase 3
You have to analyze the group previously observed and interpret the
following information about some specific details about their learning
process using Task 3 Observational Practice Step 2 - Observation
Matrix.
Instructions: Choose at least 5 observation individuals (learners), in the
different classes where you have been developing your observation
practice and analyze the following criteria in each of them, without
identifying their names.
1. Universal features of the L2 learner and the L2 learning process that
determine the nature and route of acquisition (e.g., age and critical
periods; cross-linguistic influences; the role of the environment and
environmental triggers of acquisition; cognitive contributions;
interlanguage variability vs. systematicity and developmental stages
and sequences);
2. Individual influences related to the differential rate of acquisition
and ultimate success in an L2 (e.g., aptitude, motivation, and
effect);
3. Social dimensions that influence L2 learning (e.g., social identity,
power
asymmetries, class, and gender, macro socio-political and sociocultural context).
Phase 4
Considering the evaluation, you did to five learners through the matrix,
use the theories included in the book:
Skehan, P. (2006). Readings in Methodology: A collection of Articles of
the Teaching of English as a Foreign Language. Pázmány Péter
Catholic University. Retrieved from
https://www.academia.edu/2344088/Current_trends_in_teaching_sec
ond_language_vocabulary
And try to find how could be the best way to reduce or avoid the current
problems those students are currently facing related to the evaluation
items included in the matrix.
Please take into account the pros and cons to build your proposal.
