This study explores student writing, from a sample of 166 diverse middle graders, across topics to determine patterns in borrowing from instructional…

Craig Thorburn – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Language learners need to map a continuous, multidimensional acoustic signal to discrete abstract speech categories. The complexity of this mapping poses a difficult learning problem, particularly for second language learners who struggle to acquire the speech sounds of a non-native language, and almost never reach native-like ability. A common…
