Converging Evidence for the "Acquisition-Learning" Distinction.
Zobl, Helmut
Applied Linguistics, v16 n1 p35-56 Mar 1995
Examines Krashen's (1977) theory that postulates a distinction between language acquisition and language learning, reviewing recent studies on morpheme order, code-focused instruction, and grammatical rules that support the theory. Contrary to what has been claimed, the theory is not insulated against attempts to disconfirm it. (87 references) (MDM)
