part 2: Use this topic (The Human Language) to make a PowerPoint presentation. Choose one question to which you’d like to find the answer through library research. Remember, it can’t be a yes/no question.
On slides, begin with an introduction – give brief background information on your topic; it serves as your introduction, having a hook and background information, including a definition if necessary, and your research questions.
Do thorough research on your topic as you move onto your body slides – as you will include bibliographies at the end of your slides, have a minimum of 5 resources credible or scholarly references published within the last 5 years.
State what each article says and come up with your conclusion to answer your research question. i attached a sample of what the PowerPoint should look like
Requirements: 15 slides not including title/reference slide with at least 50-100 words of speaker notes on each slide | .ppt file
Be sure to include an introduction with a clear thesis statement along with a conclusion
Please be sure to carefully follow the instructions
Please be sure to include at least one in-text citation on each slide
Please be sure to include title, conclusion, and reference slides in the ppt
Please be sure to include a background and at least one image on each ppt slide whether its a photograph, statistic, graph, document etc.
Please use the 5×5 rule for the ppt slides
No plagiarism & No Course Hero & No Chegg. The assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool

FIRST AND SECOND
LANGUAGE ACQUISITION
WHAT ARE THEIR SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES?
NAME
RESEARCH
QUESTION?
• The question I chose to ask for my research project is; what are
the similarities and differences between a person acquiring their
first language and their second language?
LANGUAGE ACQUISITION
• First Language acquisition is the process by which
people learn their native language
• There is also second language acquisition which is
how someone learns their second language from
speaking to writing and even listening
LANGUAGE
• Learning your first language is always viewed as the easiest
language because as a child your very susceptible to the world
around you so you learn things quickly despite their
complexities’.
• Its still uncertain everything that goes into the acquisition
process but it is safe to say that they begin to learn and
understand the world around them and once they do their
brain takes it from there.
WHAT EXACTLY IS LANGUAGE ALL ABOUT?
• Which further brings up the question what is language all about and how are we able to understand it
all from infancy stages to adulthood.
NATIVE LANGUAGE
ACQUISITION
• In a study on infants brain neurology of learning
their native language it states “during the first 6
months after an infant is born, the brain, without
a systematic language preference mechanism, can
openly and indiscriminately receive all human
languages and automatically distinguish voices
and morphemes of all languages.”
• It further continues by saying “this ability has
nothing to od with the environmental stimuli.”
ARTICLE EXPLANATION
That article was just talking about how babies can
conceptualize language right after they are born. Despite
how complex it is, they still don’t need to really on external
stimuli
Which is own way languages is
understood though the infancy stage.
• There continues to be more evidence that proves that external
stimuli play a role in the process of learning language in the infantry
stage
NATIVE LANGUAGE
LEARNING CONT.
• Another article about Infant learning stated, “the studies above
suggest that the speech advantage is neither the product of
attention to a broad class of communicative stimuli, or some general
improvement in “verbal” working memory. “ and “This leaves two
accounts for future testing. Under one, speech is somehow special
and so infants are predisposed to learn from it.”
That article was stating that
infants do not speak solely
on what they hear or even
what they remember.
But they also found that
speech and hearing it does
play a role somehow in an
infants learning process.
ARTICLE EXPLANATION CONT .
INFANT EAGERNESS
Another article that talks more about the infant learning process is about
the curiosity-based learning that infants use. It says “children are more
than passive observer; rather, they take an active role in constructing their
own learning. Recent work demonstrates this
active learning in infants also. ”
It also states “outside the lab infants interact with their
environment freely and largely autonomously, learning about
stimuli in whichever order they choose. This exploration is not
driven by an external motivation such as finding food to satiate
hunger. Rather, it is intrinsically motivated.”
THAT ARTICLE WAS JUST A
CONTINUATION OF HOW INFANTS LEARN
AND HOW IT ISN’T SOMETHING THAT
JUST COMES TO THEM THEY GO OUT AND
GET IT AND ARE ACTIVE IN THEIR OWN
LEARNING PROCESS.
BABIES ARE VERY CURIOUS SO THEY USE THEIR
CURIOSITY TO DRIVE THEIR LEARNING PROCESS,
WHICH ALLOWS THEM TO LEARN COMPLEX
MATTERS WITHIN JUST A FEW MONTHS OF
THEIR LIVES. THEY DON’T NEED ANY EXTERNAL
CIRCUMSTANCES LIKE PARENTS FOR THEM TO
LEARN.
ARTICLE EXPLANATION
NATIVE LANGUAGE SUMMARY
• Learning ones native language which is often within the infant
stage doesn’t take a lot of time as infants are found to internally
motivated to learn more and more as time progresses no v
.matter the difficulty of what it is they are trying to understand
• There are several ways we can
acquire our native language, but is it
the same for acquiring your second
language?
SECOND LANGUAGE
ACQUISITION
BILINGUALISM
• Bilingualism is the term referred to someone who can speak
another language in addition to their native language. The word
bi meaning 2 and lingual meaning language, therefore the word
bilingual.
• What goes in to learning a second language u may ask?
“Motivation is one of the main affective factors influencing
the SLA.” SLA stands for second language acquisition,
which is basically how does someone learn another
language ? The article further explains the motivation
when it says, “it is generally divided into integrative
motivation and instrumental motivation; the former refers
to the motivation that learners have special interest in the
target language.”
THE FACTORS
OF SECOND
LANGUAGE
ACQUISITION
ARTICLE EXPLANATION
This article informs us on the
fact that Second language
learners have to approach
learning another language
differently than those learning
their native language.
As u can see there is motivation
involved but not just any
motivation there are different
types for different causes.
SECOND
LANGUAGE
LEARNING
• There was another study that talked about what factors go into
learning a second language, who is easier to learn a second
language and they found that “Although age and experiencerelated variables strongly predict the extent to which early
bilinguals can ultimately attain second language proficiency
(younger and more practice is better), it has been shown that
post-pubertal second language learning (age of
acquisition > 16 years) is subject to a great deal of individual
variability. Even if two adults practice a target language for the
same amount of time in an identical manner, their outcomes
may most likely differ in various dimensions of language.
• Which shows that age plays an important variables in whether or
not someone can successfully acquire another language
ARTICLE EXPLANATION
This article shows prof that people trying learn
another language after puberty struggle more
than if it was before puberty
After puberty there are so many variable two
people can learn the something and only one can
end up acquiring the language.
01
02
03
Through the research of several
articles pertaining to native
language learning and SLA the
answer to my question would be;
there are several similarities and
differences between both
acquisition processes.
When acquiring a native langue you are
motivated just liked with a second
language except native language learners
which are presumably infants are
motivated through curiosity while second
language learners more likely of an older
stature have to find a different kind of
motivation to accomplish the same task.
Another thing is infants enjoy the process
of learning allowing it to come naturally
while learning a second language will feel
more like a chore and arduous work
because of all the other factors that are
involved with being a human like dealing
with society and ”life” in all its splendor.
THAT IS JUST THE TIP OF THE
ICEBERG. As both infants and
post pubertal people are
quite complex creatures and
its not like infants can tell
you what’s happening to
them which makes them a
little harder to understand.
