Task:
Part one
How is language learned? On the basis of the work you have done in APPL912, explain how individuals develop the ability to use language. You should refer to relevant sources (especially the set readings for APPL912) throughout to support your discussion.
Part two
Consider a personal or professional context with which you are familiar. This could be:
- a specific language classroom (L1 or L2) you are familiar with, either as teacher or learner
- a family or other social context (such as an environment where a child is learning their first language or languages)
- a professional context such as speech pathology, audiology, or occupational therapy where language learning is central to the client and the professional practice
- an institutional context where ‘the language of the institution’ is clearly identifiable.
Once you have decided on a context to explore:
• Briefly identify and describe the context.
• How is your understanding of language learning as articulated in part one of this assignment reflected, or not reflected, in the social practices in this context?
• On the basis of your study of APPL912, what do you think is 'done well' and not done well' in terms of the language-learning-related social practices in this context?
