Course Summary

This course surveys approaches to second language (L2) learning and factors that influence its rate (and possible route) such as cross-linguistic influence, age and individual differences. Students will discover how humans learn language(s) after they acquire their first language (L1). Students are expected to actively participate in discussions as well as taking turns in leading the discussion on various topics covered in class.
