Multilingual Learning for Specific Purposes: Identifying Language Strategies, Awareness and Preferences

Year: 2012

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: Interest in multilingual learning provided the stimulus for conducting the study with the aim to provide an account of LSP students' awareness in strategy employment in English as a first foreign language (FL1) and German as a second foreign language (FL2). The findings revealed a satisfactory degree of students' strategic awareness both in FL1 and FL2. It is suggested that the students could benefit from multilingual instruction to enhance their awareness in multilingual competence and metacognitive strategic use in as many foreign languages as possible.
