Language Acquisition

This activity is to assess the specific objective.

   The task is claimed to be the workplan that constitutes the stimulus for an interaction. And researchers concluded that performing a task is a ‘struggle’ that can only be successfully managed when learners achieve control over the task.  In sum, task performances are always constructed rather than determined by task design features and methodological procedures, and it is also the case that the task-as-workplan will predispose learners to behave in certain ways. Based on these facts and on what was given in your class, answer the following queries:

1. Explain the cultural differences in language use.
2. Explain the concept of a ‘task’ and its varieties.
3. Question the relation between the sociocultural theory and tasks.
