S716	Seminar: Second Language Acquisition
	Input Processing - Topic: Research Design and the
Statistical Analysis in Spanish Language Acquisition Research

MW 1:00pm – 2:15pm/class# 24020/3cr./Location TBA

We examine input processing by examining the processes and products
of both incidental and instructed second language acquisition.  By
incidental acquisition I refer to making form-meaning connections as
an unintended byproduct of a separate processing task.  By
instructed acquisition I refer, specifically, to Processing
Instruction.

Students will be required to prepare 4 review essays. We will design
and execute related investigations on a particular linguistic
phenomenon for both incidental and instructed acquisitional
contexts.
