Processes and Theories
- Behaviorist Theory
- B. F. Skinner

- Stephen Krashen
- Common Underlying Proficiency
- Jim Cummins
- Theory that abilities in
different language inhabit

things (verbs, nouns, etc.). It's
just how a language utilizes
them that changes.
- A sentence may look
completely different in another
language, but they still contain
the same fundamental
interactions between words.
