Second Language Acquisition in Informal Setting

Abstract

For second language acquisition (SLA), having access to language input is critical.Although the theories of SLA attach different importance to the role of language input, they all acknowledge the need for it (Ellis, 2008).Learners of English as a second (ESL) or a foreign language (EFL) are always encouraged to avail themselves of all forms of authentic language input within the classroom and beyond.In contexts with limited social interaction in the English language, however, various audiovisual technologies are available to be utilized as sources of authentic language input for enhancing language learning in both formal and informal learning settings.In the same line, the present aims at considering the role of language input for SLA development in informal setting.
