K-12 PD Webinar 14: Comprehensible Input as the Most Important Factor in Language Acquisition
Presentation Description
We “acquire” (not “learn”) language when we understand what we hear and what we read, when we get “comprehensible input.” We do not acquire language when we speak, write or study it. Effective methods supply interesting and comprehensible input, often in the form of stories (otherwise known as “literature” and “fiction”). Stephen Krashen’s input hypothesis is one of the most influential theories of second language acquisition. In this webinar, Prof. Stephen Krashen will explain why Comprehensible Input is the most important factor in learning another language.
Speaker Biography
Stephen Krashen has published over 500 articles and a dozen scholarly books in the fields of literacy, language acquisition, neurolinguistics, and bilingual education. Many of these publications are available for free download at sdkrashen.com. He no longer writes books because nobody can afford them. Nevertheless, he is the most frequently cited scholar in the field of language education.
