Abstract:
Adults find learning new languages to be difficult. The proposed project uses a miniature language learning paradigm to explore whether learning a new language can be enhanced by speaking the language as opposed to just listening to it. Research has suggested an advantage of retrieval practice for learning; this is referred to as the “testing effect” (Rowland, 2014; Karpicke & Roediger, 2007). Recent work suggests that such benefits may extend to artificial language learning (Hopman & MacDonald, 2018). The proposed study examines whether retrieval practice enhances learning of a natural language (Turkish) relative to other methods. We introduce Turkish to naïve learners through a remote computer-assisted language learning (CALL) protocol that is delivered synchronously via Zoom where spoken dialogues are presented in structured tasks with immediate feedback. Across learning conditions, we vary the structure of the learning tasks in a between- subjects design, i.e., whether participants are required ...
