Course Description
This course will explore an expanded and critical view of language acquisition drawing on theories, models and research in a range of disciplines including psycholinguistics, sociolinguistics, folklore, anthropology, psychology communication, and education. The process of acquiring language is deeply affected by the process of becoming a competent member of society. An expanded view of the ways which individuals become socialized into particular patterns of language use and the on-going development of oral and written language from early childhood to adult life will be considered.
