Using language acquisition and second language acquisition flowcharts

These flowcharts arrange ideas in a visual format. Academic Language Synthesis links academic language with terms such as cognitive academic language proficiency and social language. Theories of language acquisition brings several theoretical approaches together, while the flowchart on foreign language teaching approaches introduces figures and ideas associated with language teaching.

For a starting point, open Academic Language Synthesis if you want to focus on language used in teaching and learning subjects. If you are comparing explanations of acquisition, start instead with Theories of language acquisition, then look at Language acquisition by Stephen Krashen for a closer view of his ideas.

Study with the flowcharts

Follow the connections in a chart, then close it and try to explain the ideas in your own words. Return to the chart to check what you missed. When you want a plain-text account or a way to check your recall, switch to notes or a quiz on the unit page.

Choose a chart and trace its main ideas.
