, QUESTION 1 1.1. Discuss the critical period hypothesis and indicate whether it has any relevance to
language acquisition and language learning. Substantiate your answer. (10) 1.2. Explain how the concept
of “language transfer” relates to the role of the first language in additional language teaching according
to Cummins (1980). Describe how you would identify opportunities for “language transfer” in additional
language teaching. (10) 1.3. Learning unit 4 discusses the principles of teaching. Select five principles
and explain how you would use them in the classroom. (10) (30)
Sure, let's break down each question:
1.1. Discuss the critical period hypothesis and indicate whether it has any relevance to
language acquisition and language learning. Substantiate your answer.
The critical period hypothesis posits that there is a biologically determined period during which language
acquisition must occur in order for native-like proficiency to be achieved. This theory suggests that
there's a specific window of time in early childhood during which the brain is most receptive to language
input, and if language acquisition doesn't occur within this timeframe, it becomes significantly more
difficult to attain native-like fluency.
Relevance to language acquisition and learning:
• Support: Research has shown that individuals who are exposed to language during the critical
period tend to achieve higher levels of proficiency and native-like pronunciation compared to those who
begin learning a language later in life.
• Substantiation: For example, studies of immigrant populations often find that children who arrive in
a new country before puberty generally achieve better proficiency in the new language compared to
adults who immigrate later.
1.2. Explain how the concept of “language transfer” relates to the role of the first language in
additional language teaching according to Cummins (1980). Describe how you would identify
opportunities for “language transfer” in additional language teaching.
Language transfer refers to the influence of a learner's first language (L1) on the acquisition of a second
language (L2). According to Cummins (1980), learners often transfer linguistic elements, such as
vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation patterns, from their L1 to the L2. This transfer can either
facilitate or hinder language learning, depending on the similarities and differences between the two
languages.
Identifying opportunities for language transfer:
• Analyze the linguistic structures of both the L1 and L2 to identify similarities and differences.
• Encourage learners to make connections between their L1 and L2, highlighting similarities that can
aid comprehension and production.
