The Effect of Formal Language Instruction on the Order of Morpheme Acquisition

Peer reviewed

Perkins, Kyle; Larsen-Freeman, Diane – Language Learning, 1975

A study was conducted to determine if informal learners of ESL had the same acquisition order of morphemes as formal learners have and to find out what would happen to the established order if only certain of the grammatical morphemes were explained and drilled. Instruction did not change acquisition order. (Author/KM)

Peer reviewed

Cohen, Andrew D.; Robbins, Margaret – Language Learning, 1976

A study of certain aspects of second language learning among three university students, all in an advanced ESL class at UCLA. An error analysis of written verb forms was undertaken.
