Words in Mind and Brain: Implications for Vocabulary Acquisition and Instruction

Sunday, January 26th, 2003, 2:00 PM - 5:00 PM

Speaker: Nick Ellis, University of Wales

This seminar by Nick Ellis concerns second language vocabulary acquisition and instruction. What are the best ways for a second language learner to rapidly acquire vocabulary and to make it stick? What are the best ways for an instructor to help them with this goal? In the first three-hour open session, Ellis will overview educational and psychological evaluations that directly inform these questions.
