7、决定性作用。Swain 认为,尽管理解输入语对二语学习很重要,但并不能保证学习者在语法准确性方面达到近似本族语者的水平。学习者只有通过使用所学语言才能达到这一点。Swain(1995)在对加拿大的法语沉浸式教学进行调查时发现,课堂上教师讲多听少,学生听多讲少,大部分时间都用于做笔记。BACK Swain(1995)在其语言输出假设中阐述了输出对语言习得的作用:1.注意/触发功能(the noticing/triggering function);2.假设验证功能(the hypothesis function);3.元语言功能(the meta-linguistic function)。Thr

8、ee functions First,output has a noticing/triggering function.The claim here is that while attempting to produce the target language(vocally or silently(sub-vocally),learners may notice that they do not know how to say (or write)precisely the meaning they wish to convey.In other words,under some circ

9、umstances,the activity of producing the target language may prompt second language learners to notice or recognize consciously some of their linguistic problems:it may bring their attention to something they need to discover about their second language(possibly directing their attention to relevant

10、input).This awareness triggers cognitive processes that have been implicated in second language learningones in which learners generate linguistic knowledge which is new for them,or which consolidate their current existing knowledge(Swain&Lapkin 1995).There have been a number of carefully designed,e

11、xperimental studies which have examined the effect of output on noticing and acquisition of particular target forms,including Swains research and his students research(e.g.,Izumi 2002).The claim here is that output may sometimes be,from the learner s perspective,a“trial run”reflecting their hypothes

13、to figure out both the meaning of“suite”and how to say it.If learners were not testing hypotheses,then changes in their output would not be expected following feedback.Second,the output has a hypothesis testing functionThe claim here is that using language to reflect on language produced by others o

14、r the self,mediates second language learning.This idea originates with Vygotskys sociocultural theory of mind.Sociocultural theory is about people operating with mediating tools.Speaking is one such tool.In this context,Swain has relabeled“output”as speaking,writing,collaborative dialogue,private sp
