Input Enhancement in Instructed SLA: Theoretical Bases.
Smith, Michael Sharwood
Studies in Second Language Acquisition, v15 n2 p165-79 Jun 1993
The concept of input to the language learner is examined with reference to some current theorizing about language processing and the idea of modular systems of knowledge. It is argued that exposure to a second language engages the learner in a whole battery of different processing mechanisms. (21 references) (Author/LB)
