Research into SLA from Interactionists and Motivation Perspectives
交互和动机视角下的第二语言习得研究
系列讲座内容提要
The first three presentations will be devoted toresearch into second language acquisition (SLA) from cognitive-interactionist (Gass & Mackey, 2015), usage-based (Tomasello, 2003, 2009, 2009; N. Ellis & Wulff, 2015), and sociocultural (Lantolf, Thorne, & Poehner, 2015) theoretical perspectives. We will examine universal, individual, and social sources of influence on the learning of additional languages later in life – that is, during adulthood or late adolescence. These include age (Ortega, 2016), crosslinguistic influence, the linguistic environment, cognition, individual sources of variation (including aptitude, motivation (Ortega, 2016), and affect), and the present social reorientation of SLA that points at the bridging of social and cognitive dimensions of language learning (Atkinson, 2011). Major constructs for each of the selected theoretical perspectives as well their operationalization and exemplary (Chinese) SLA studies will be examined. The presentations will conclude on howmajor SLA theories address the systematicity and the variability observed in interlanguage (Ortega, 2015).
The fourth lecture discusses a number of cognitive theories with an eye towards instructional and curriculum practice. Theories covered include Episodic memory (Tulving, 1983, 2002), Transfer-appropriate processing (Goldstein, 2008; Morris, Bransford, & Franks,1977), and Neighborhood activation model (Luce, Pisoni, and Goldinger 1990). Pedagogical implications, particularly those involved with pedagogical grammar and task-based language instruction, will be discussed.
The last talk introduces the article “A transdisciplinary framework for SLA in a multilingual world,”authored by a group of 15 scholars referring to themselves collectively as the Douglas Fir Group (2016). The DFG proposes a new, rethought SLA framework that is transdisciplinary, one that encompasses three interrelated levels of social activity: the micro level of social action and interaction, the meso level of sociocultural institutions and communities, and the macro level of ideological structures (p. 36).
Ten fundamental themes are presented in the DFG framework in connection with the three interrelated levels of social activity:
1.Language competences are complex, dynamic, and holistic.
2.Language learning is semiotic learning.
3.Language learning is situated and attentionally and socially gated.
4.Language learning is multi-modal, embodied, and mediated.
5.Variability and change are at the heart of language learning.
6.Literacy and instruction mediate language learning.
7.Language learning is identity work.
8.Agency and transformative power are means and goals for language learning.
9. Ideologies permeate all levels.
10.Emotion and affect matter at all levels.
A new Chinese SLA study aiming to apply this transdisciplinary frameworkwill be discussed at the presentation.
