Bloomfieldian proposed a multi-step process

Read Gass chapters 4 and 5, and answer the following questions:

1. Bloomfieldian proposed a multi-step process by which language acquisition takes place (Pages 81 and 82 of the required reading). Summarize these steps.
2. On page 84, Postman 1971 argues that “the study of transfer is coextensive with the investigation of learning”. What does he mean?
3. On page 86, there is a list of assumptions underlying the creation of the pedagogical materials that resulted from contrastive analyses. Summarize these assumptions in one single coherent paragraph.
4. What are the two versions of the Contrastive Analysis Hypothesis (CAH), and how are they different from each other?
5. Provide an example for each of the five difficulty levels as outlined by the Hierarchy of Difficulty proposed by Stockwell et al. (1965).
6. How is error analysis different from contrastive analysis?
7. How are interlingual and intralingual errors different from each other?
8. What is the main claim of the Creative Construction Hypothesis?
9. Explain two of the criticisms that have challenged the methodology and results of the Morpheme Order studies. 10. What is Affective Filter and how does it influence L2 acquisition?
10. What is Affective Filter and how does it influence L2 acquisition?
