Inhalt: This tutorial aims at exploring and synthesizing insights from second language acquisition research studies. It aims at involving the participants in their professional development by encouraging the reflection of their own second language learning processes and discussing issues, problems, and possibilities in foreign language teaching methodology. Furthermore it aims at developing a methodological framework for a professional communicative language teaching practice at secondary level, which can function as a methodological springboard for future teaching. Some of the issues that will be raised are: · SLA and implications for the classroom · Learner differences and implications for teaching · Teacher’s and learner’s roles and responsibilities · The communicative classroom/curriculum · Learner autonomy and learner training · Developing language skills · Planning and Assessing learning

Inhalt: Second Language Acquisition (SLA) is a theoretical and experimental field of study that examines language development, in this case the acquisition of second languages. The term second includes "foreign" and "third", "fourth" (etc.). The dominant aim behind this research is to extend our understanding of the complex processes and mechanisms that drive language acquisition. SLA differs from second language teaching, methodology, and curriculum studies although findings from SLA research may inform practices in foreign language education.
