Description

This Cambridge Element examines the role and nature of focus on form in second language acquisition.

An overall assessment of the role of instruction and the nature of language is provided.

Instruction might have a facilitative role in the rate of acquisition.

The Element briefly reviews empirical research examining the relative effects of different types of focus on form and presents some of the key implications for second language learning and teaching.

An effective focus on form type is one that is input and meaning oriented.

Manipulating input to facilitate language processing and form-meaning connections might enhance second language acquisition.
