Second Language Acquisition has become a full-fledged subfield of linguistics with its own myriad of approaches. This course invites students to explore and develop a deeper understanding of the field and the way it interfaces with language teaching. To do so, we read and discuss overview and in-depth papers, compare approaches and interact with researchers in SLA and/or education in the Netherlands. The students gradually work towards making their own contribution to the field of SLA and/or language teaching based on their own research interests.
