3. Definition of Interlanguage A mental system that develops in learning second language for the learners

4. Theories of Interlanguage

5. Behaviorist Learning Theory

7. Mentalist Theory of Language Learning

8. Language can be learned only by human being • Human has a “language acquisition device” faculty that help them to learn the new language. • The faculty is the main factor in language acquisition. • Input is the “trigger” to operate the language acquisition device

9. Interlanguage • The learners produce a mental grammar. • The mental grammar can be influenced from inside (from the learners themselves, eg : error, mistakes) and from outside (environment). The learners grammar changes depend on the knowledge the learners have achieved.

10. The system learners construct contain variable rules • The learners create their own stategy • The learners’ grammar is likely to fossilize

11. A Computational Model of L2 Acquisition Human mind is like computer Input Output IntakeL2 knowledge Black Box

12. The learner is trying to get the knowledge (input). The part of the input is stored in short-term memory, refered to intake. Some of the intake is stored in long term memory as L2 knowledge. The place where the intake and L2 are processed called black box of the learner’s mind. In the black box, the learner’s interlanguage is constructed. L2 knowledge is used by the learner (output).
