Note: these courses (TL2V14104 Tlc-Tweede-taalontwikkeling en EN3V13001 Eng-Lang. Development across the Lifespan) cannot both be part of your programme because the courses duplicate some content.

Covering language development across the lifespan, this course provides students with the conceptual foundations underlying the study of second language acquisition and introduces them to current debates in this area.
