David Block asks the question "What is second language
acquisition (SLA)?" by offering an extended critique of one of the
main theoretical approaches to second language acquisition: the
"Input-Interaction-Output" model. He argues that a more
interdisciplinary and socially informed approach to SLA research is
in order, and he draws on recent work in sociolinguistics as well
as SLA research influenced by sociolinguistic and sociohistorical
approaches to language and language learning. In so doing, he
demonstrates that there is a need to broaden the horizons of second
language acquisition. Finally, he offers some important thoughts on
the future direction of SLA research, and includes an extensive
bibliography.
