An Experimental Study of Output Hypothesis: The Role of Output in Second Language Learning.
Ano, Kouichi
Journal of Japan-Korea Association of Applied Linguistics, v1 p63-72 1998
Reports a study of Japanese students learning English in Japan. Supports the notion that the necessity to communicate forces learners to notice linguistic problems, and that noticing a problem can push learners to modify their original input. Through this cognitive process, learners acquire second languages, especially the ability to produce oral and written language. (Author/VWL)
