Course Objective
The primary aim of this course is to introduce basic concepts related to first and second/foreign language acquisition/learning ans also to enable students to understand the stages through which children acquire their first language (L1) and through which children and adults acquire second/foreign languages (L2). Students are expected to form connections among the main methods, theories, and substantive findings in the fields of first language acquisition (FLA) and second language acquisition (SLA). In addition, they are expected to compare and contrast first and second language acquisition theories. A final aim of the course is to raise students' awareness into the reflections of first/second language acquisition processes in second/foreign language teaching.
