Paradigm shift in SLA research

From models of two languages (L1 + L2), e.g. Contrastive Hypothesis, L1=L2 Hypothesis, Interlanguage Hypothesis

to models which include more than two languages - also dialects or other variants - (L1, L2 and Lx).

New issues from recent studies

L1 Learning traditions and cultures: e.g. oral traditions in Burkina Faso

Multiple semilingualism: in multilingual societies, such as Malaysia

Interlingual sensitisation: e.g. comparisons, transfer, inference

EuroComGerm: intercomprehension between related languages

Possible consequences formultilingual education in Norway 1

No need to start from scratch with each new language (p. 101). Try to achieve fordypning i fremmedspråk instead.

Awareness-raising of existing potential for competencies in other languages

Britta Hufeisen


Usage of previous foreign language learning experiences and strategies

Development of competencies to compare, transfer and refer back interlingually

Britta Hufeisen


Instruction and learning materials:

1. refer to/include other languages2. develop regional versions3. structure in modules

Britta Hufeisen


Curriculum: development of a common curriculum with all languages including the L1 (and all other subjects as well)

Possible consequences for teacher education 1

Example Norway:

joint course(s) in multilingualism research, didactics and pedagogy offered to all languages students

Britta Hufeisen


course(s) in norsk som 2. språk to all student teachers

course(s) in CLIL to all student teachers

Britta Hufeisen


Introduction of norsk som 2. språk and CLIL for all student teachers in their curriculum:

1. in general modules (studium generale)

2. in their own subject(s)

Possible consequences for in-service training 1

course(s) in multilingualism research, didactics and pedagogy

course(s) in norsk som 2. Språk

Course(s) in CLIL

Britta Hufeisen

Possible consequences for in-service training 2

additional programs (Master?): 1. Multilingual education in school2. Norsk som 2. språk 3. CLIL

module(s)/course(s) 1. Multilingual education in school2. Norsk som 2. språk 3. CLIL

EuroComGerm – useful for Norway? 1

European intercomprehension

Specific techniques to quickly acquire reading comprehension in more than one related language at same time and very quickly

Britta Hufeisen

EuroComGerm – useful for Norway? 2

Method to promote the learning of more than just 1 foreign language

Bridge language(s) required

EuroComRom well-developed, EuroComGerm pending
