Explicit Learning in the L2 Classroom
Abstract
Explicit Learning in the L2 Classroom offers a unique five-prong (theoretical, empirical, methodological, pedagogical, and model building) approach to the issue of explicit learning in the L2 classroom from a student-centered perspective. To achieve this five-prong objective, the book reports the theoretical underpinnings, empirical studies, and the research designs employed in current research to investigate the constructs of attention and awareness in SLA with the objectives to (1) propose a model of the L2 learning process in SLA that accounts for the cognitive processes employed during this process and (2) provide pedagogical and curricular implications for the L2 classroom. The book also provides a comprehensive treatise of research methodology that is aimed at not only underscoring the major features of conducting robust research designs with high levels of internal validity but also preparing teachers to become critical readers of published empirical research.

“This research has tended to focus on the construct of noticing, differentiating between noticing at the level of detection, awareness, and understanding (Leow, 2015; Robinson, 1995).”

In the citing paper
“Researchers of L2 acquisition have emphasized the need for L2 learners to pay attention to the connections between language form and its meanings in use (e.g., Gass, 2003; Leow, 2015; Long, 1996; Schmidt, 2001).”

“…VRs, which are often used to research language skills such as reading (Smith et al. 2020), such re fl ection would seem more likely, and thus more of a concern, in the retrospective reports, as required in listener VRs, where the learner can e ff ectively get two bites of the cherry (Leow 2015).”

“TE is further supported by SLA learning theories such as Schmidt ’ s (1990) noticing hypothesis and Leow ’ s (2015) model of L2 learning processes in instructed SLA, both of which posit that conscious attention to linguistic forms is necessary for initial processing and learning of L2 input.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
