The Role of Interaction in Second Language Acquisition
Year: 2014
Type: article
Abstract: This paper addresses the issue of interaction and its role in second language acquisition. The role of “interaction” in L2 learning has long been a controversial issue. By explaining the definition of input and interaction hypothesis, the paper elaborates the theory that both input and interactional modifications facilitate second language acquisition. This study will focus on a case study which determines the importance of interaction in language acquisition. The results indicated that a considerable number of students consider interaction in language acquisition as a key factor. The findings of this empirical study, the review of literature as well as students experiences provide useful suggestions concerning the ways of promoting interaction in language acquisition.
