    This document discusses cognitive considerations in first and second language acquisition, including Piaget's stages of intellectual development and the critical period hypothesis. It also examines the concepts of equilibration and meaningful versus rote learning based on Ausubel's learning theory. Specifically, it covers Piaget's sensorimotor, preoperational, and operational stages from birth to age 16. It also references the critical period at age 11 and the importance of implicit versus explicit learning mechanisms according to various scholars.

    Rote and meaningful learning (Ausubel)
    Rote learning:
    -mechanistic learning, not related to existing knowledge, experience
    - adults are better
    - usually short term memory

    Meaningful learning:
    -anchoring new items to knowledge that exists in the cognitive frame
    work
    -contextualised, purposeful
    Second language acquisition
    aspects
    • C2
    - natural untutored learning
    - meaningful context

    • A2
    - classroom learning
    - excessive number of rote learning
