Introduction of interrelationship of psychological, social, cultural, and educational factors influencing learning and language fluency. Discuss interdisciplinary perspectives of second-language acquisition and their application to classroom practices. Particular emphasis on generative models of syntax: analysis of important syntactics structures of English, exploration of acquisition and internalization of those structures in first- and second-language learners through field observations of L1 and L2 English language learners, and hands-on experience of teaching methods (such as sentence combining) and assessment based on those conclusions. Offered Spring semesters. Prerequisite(s): ENG 330 .
