Krashen The Monitor Theory


In the following days you will see that in class I will be working with error correction and something I call the "Fossil Chart". Most of this is based on the Monitor Theory by Krashen. So here are some links to read more about this theory:

  1. Krashen in wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Krashen
  2. Krashen's personal webpage http://www.sdkrashen.com/
  3. A summary of the Monitor's theory http://homepage.ntlworld.com/vivian.c/SLA/Krashen.htm
  4. Krashen has also worked on bilingual education and has some fierce critics about his work on this topic. If you're interested on that here you can find some information:
