Students develop an understanding of the major theories and theoretical debates in SLA, and explore the major paradigms in SLA research. In addition, students learn how to read and critically evaluate original SLA research articles, as well as how to develop a research proposal addressing a problem in the practice of second language education as a capstone project.
