NBPTS ENL Assessment 2024 Rated A+ Krashen's monitor hypothesis Editor in our brain that tells us our utterances are correct. It is developed through language exposure. Implication: provide students with rich language experiences Krashen's natural order hypothesis Predictable order for acquiring language. Implications: can't be altered. Provide meaningful language exposure. Concentrate on the message. comprehensible input hypothesis L2 is acquired faster when message is understood. Implications: Input that is too advanced won't be learned, must use scaffolding strategies, visuals, familiar topics, context cues, modified speech (motherese) CI + 1: Comprehensible input + one Similar to zone of proximal development. L2 is acquired with input just beyond their level of competence. Implication:Introduce new concepts that are just one step beyond what they already know. L2 acquisition It's subconscious. Focused on communication and message. Implication: provide comprehensible input in a meaningful context. Use scaffolds in a supportive environment 7 principles of SLA 2. varies 1. functional 3. implies learning a second culture 4. long-term process 5. needs meaningful context and interaction 6. L1 contributes to L2 7. multilinguism is societal asset acquisition vs learning Learning is knowing about language. Acquisition is subconscious, It's use for meaningful conversation Implications: provide meaningful, comprehensible input to help acquisition. Make input comprehensible through scaffolds and use of background knowledge. affective filter L2 acquisition. barrier that increases with high anxiety. High affective filter has negative effect on Implications: Low anxiety facilitates language acquisition. Overt correction raises affective filter. Need positive, comfortable,welcoming environment. natural approach We develop L1 and L2 BICS similarly. Both L1 and L2 go through the 4 PEPSI stages. Content over form Implications: avoid overt error correction, drills, scripted dialogues. Don't force speech. Provide comprehensible, interesting input Stage 1 - Preproduction Characteristics: Silent period.Minimal comprehension. Implications: Respect silent period. Use: TPR, games, visuals, simple sentences, slow speech, repetition. Performance Indicators: listen, draw, move, select, point, match, circle. Stage 2 - Early Production comprehension. Characteristics: telegraphese, respond with key words only, Limited Implications: Provide comprehensible input and positive feeback. Performance indicators: name, list, label, categorize, yes/no questions, sentence completion Stage 3 - Speech Emergence comprehension. Characteristics: Generate simple sentences; Increased Implications: Overlook errors in favor of fluency. Performance indicators: retell, describe, define, explain, compare, contrast Stage 4 - Intermediate Fluency Characteristics: good comprehension, use complex sentences Implications: Instruction in grammar in meaningful context. Performance indicators: analyze, evaluate, justify, support, debate, describe in detail metalinguistic skills talking, analyzing, thinking about language Implication:Develop metalinguistic skills about some language points, for example: phonemic awareness and sound-to-symbol correspondence are key factors in literacy sociolinguistics How we use language in different social situations. Language use is influenced by social factors: age, gender, education, ethnic identity, and peer group. Implications:help develop awareness of social setting, speaker, purpose, topic, audience communicative competence context Implications: Help develop awareness of social setting and registers the ability to use socially appropriate language depending on the f luency rapid, flowing, natural speech; not necessarily correct. Implications: Fluency is preferred over accuracy in beginning stages. If accuracy is stressed, affective f ilter will go up. Denotation vs Conotation Denotation: literal meaning of word Conotation: implied or suggested meaing of word Implication: Teach both intrinsic motivation Doing something without thought of external rewards. Very effective
