Reflect on the readings. How does this knowledge help you shape your language learning process?
The readings this week revolved around one central theme: how does the brain take in information and how are languages analyzed through the brain. I think this subject is very interested because even in a class of twenty students, they will all be a different places in the language. Some may have previous experience with the language or some may know a language that is similar to the language they are studying, while some may have only known one language their entire life. I think the people that succeed with progress the fastest are not those with the biggest brain or the highest GPA, but those that have the ability to see the connection between their native language and the language that they are learning. While many people think language and culture divides us, it actually brings us together and the articles emphasize the fact that all of us start out with the same brain.
