Abstract

We explore how general principles of learning apply to and combine with usage‐based approaches to language learning and teaching, with a focus on the effects of order of exposure to new information in second language (L2) instruction. Although the effects of input spacing and timing on memory and learning have been previously explored (see Rogers, 2020; Shintani, 2017, for an overview), the effects of order of exposure to the input remain understudied. In this study, we tested whether order of exposure to information in the L2 plays a role in L2 learning and whether an optimal order where the most reliable cues are introduced first ensures that foreign language learners are better equipped to form representations that allow flexible, yet accurate generalisations. We analysed data collected through a training study that teaches the English article system to first language (L1) speakers whose language does not have markers of definiteness.

第二语言学习中的顺序效应

我们探讨了学习的一般原则如何适用于语言学习和教学，并与基于使用的方法相结合，重点是第二语言（L2）教学中接触新信息的顺序的影响。尽管之前已经探讨过输入间距和时间对记忆和学习的影响（概述见 Rogers, 2020 年；Shintani, 2017 年），但对输入接触顺序的影响仍然研究不足。在本研究中，我们测试了接触第二语言信息的顺序是否在第二语言学习中发挥作用，以及首先引入最可靠线索的最佳顺序是否能确保外语学习者更好地形成表征，从而进行灵活而准确的概括。我们分析了通过一项培训研究收集到的数据，该研究向第一语言（L1）使用者教授英语冠词系统，而他们的语言中没有定冠词标记。

期刊介绍： Language Learning is a scientific journal dedicated to the understanding of language learning broadly defined. It publishes research articles that systematically apply methods of inquiry from disciplines including psychology, linguistics, cognitive science, educational inquiry, neuroscience, ethnography, sociolinguistics, sociology, and anthropology. It is concerned with fundamental theoretical issues in language learning such as child, second, and foreign language acquisition, language education, bilingualism, literacy, language representation in mind and brain, culture, cognition, pragmatics, and intergroup relations. A subscription includes one or two annual supplements, alternating among a volume from the Language Learning Cognitive Neuroscience Series, the Currents in Language Learning Series or the Language Learning Special Issue Series.
