Universal quantification

Children are amazing little beings. They learn so much in a short amount of time, especially when it comes to language. In addition to many other things, psycholinguists study children and their language development. They are interested in “whether the capacity for language is a skill that is built into the brain or whether language acquisition is experience-driven” (McCabe 370). I believe that language development happens quickly in children because it is the focus of the adults around them.…

facilities to make them more accessible to various disabilities that her elderly residents may have.

abilities. This position too has been criticized by various critics who point to the empirical studies which prove that the quality and amount of exposure to a language by a child affects his or her learning experience (Benson, 2010). Recent empirical studies by developmental psychologists point to the fact that language is exclusively human, biologically based in terms of capacity and the environment of a child influences the innate potential to learn. A number of empirical studies have found…

Bias #1, Page 171: “However, a CI can enable strong spoken language only when used with intensive auditory- oral exposure in extended, salient, and child-initiated interactions.6 Without a full linguistic and auditory experience, the effects of deafness- associated deprivation can derail the spoken language learning process before it begins.” (Mellon, N. K.) Author Nancy Mellon is currently the executive director at a non-profit agency providing several services for children who are deaf and…

While perusing the list of notable people within the field of library studies, I came across Judith Krug. I felt that it was serendipitous that I picked out her name as my librarians and I were eagerly discussing plans for Banned Book Week. This American Library Association (ALA) campaign is widely looked forward to not just by myself, but by library teams across the country. It’s only fitting to honor her by researching her accomplishments and continuing her life’s work in preserving…

Finding ways to keep students interested and motivated in learning a second language can be challenging. Every language has certain aspects that are difficult for non-native speakers to understand. These can include anything from idiomatic expressions to body language. Therefore, using different medias like music, television, and film is a way to keep them interested in learning when it starts getting more difficult (Albiach, 2011). Film is widely used to teach second languages. It is mainly…

Human Language: Innate or Constructed? Human language is a unique characteristic among species on planet Earth. Though many creatures use various methods to communicate, no known creatures other than humans have a language that vastly describes the universe. Is this ability innate or is it the product of environmental factors? In order to answer this, one must investigate a wide array of phenomena. First, it would be beneficial to define what language is. Though the exact meaning may be…

ability to organise the basic rules of language, but cannot fully utilize this skill without the presence of other humans. Yet it over stresses the role of “knowledge of competence and functions” in acquiring a language, and hence fails to notice universal principles that guide language acquisition. You can use Vygotsky’s sociocultural theory to explain how language, culture, and instructional support can influence learner development. The theory specially emphasizes the integration of social,…
