THE KRASHEN’S MONITOR MODEL
The Monitor Model is a theory of Second Language Acquisition 3 D eveloped by the American linguistic Stephen Krashen by the 1980s . This model has become in an influential theory on the language teaching.
• The Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis • The Monitor Hypothesis • The Natural Order Hypothesis • The Input Hypothesis • The Affective Filter Hypothesis Monitor Model involves five principal hypotheses about how a second/third language is acquired/learned by adults:
What are the differences between acquisition and learning language? The Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis
The Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis
According to Krashen , language is acquired, not learned. ( Krashen & Terrell 1983).
The Monitor Hypothesis conscious learning is complemented by self-monitoring and self-correction of what learner is producing. T hree conditions must be met: The learner must know the rule: It involves to have had explicit instruction about rule. The learner must be focused on correctness: Thinking about form without ignoring meaning. The learner must have time to use the monitor: It requires the speaker to slow down and focus on form.
The Natural Order Hypothesis
The natural order hypothesis is the idea that children learning their first language acquire grammatical structures in a pre-determined, 'natural' order, and that some are acquired earlier than others. The author suggests that we acquire the rules or grammatical structures of language in a predictable order for children and adults.
The Input Hypothesis The Input hypothesis is only concerned with 'acquisition', not 'learning'.
The Affective Filter Hypothesis This filter involves affective factors such as attitudes to language, motivation, self-confidence and anxiety.
