This course aims at introducing participants to fundamental concepts, current research questions and methodologies in the study of Second Language Acquisition (SLA). and will take an interdisciplinary approach. Thus SLA will be considered from linguistic (what is learned), psychological (how is knowledge acquired) and social (in which contexts) perspectives and multiple interactions of these factors will be explored. In these areas, different theories of SLA and the critical reactions to them will be examined.
