Purpose and Significance of the Study
Through the study of identifying new teaching and learning trends in second language acquisition, I seek to consider a variety of fields. I believe that scholarly awareness from many different disciplines will enhance the quality of my research project. Approaching this topic through the lens of various disciplines can also advance my ability to address significant current issues relevant to this matter. Therefore, I would like to show the potential for bringing fresh and constructive perspectives to the research as well as emphasize new theories of formal or informal trends of teaching a foreign language anywhere in Canada. 5 The objective of this thesis is to appraise evidence-based solutions to teaching FSL among adult learners. It will first identify the gaps and issues in the extant FSL pedagogy before examining various new and innovative techniques for the enhancement of FSL pedagogical practices. In this endeavor, I conducted research into the existing literature, based on the key terms “French as a second language”, “adult education, “second language teaching” and “trends in FSL”. This study finds that research in the effectiveness of second language teaching and learning in terms of pedagogical approaches and language acquisition remains limited, though a growing body of literature seeks to examine theories and insights into this issue. The theories of learning and language address the social and psychological dimensions of second language (L2) learning for French and will be further examined in this research analysis. Overall, FSL pedagogy has undergone much change and improvement, and there has been a general shift toward using the ecological approach and principled pragmaticism approach, which respectively develop a learner’s critical awareness about the significance of FSL in their lives, and helps learners adapt to unique circumstances in local contexts. Indeed, both approaches are grounded in the existing research. Also, they both emphasize new philosophies of casual and prescribed developments of teaching a foreign language. For several years, the French language has been vital in many schools’ curricula in Canada. Many have expressed demand for learning French as a second language, for French has become a significant and applicable skill in most professional areas internationally (Myers, 2012). French is spoken across five different continents and is a major language used in international communication. It is the sixth most spoken language globally and is the most broadly learned and taught language after English. Several significant professions, such as advertising, medicine, science, and fashion, have adopted French because of its international reach (Myers, 2012). |
