Chapter: Comparing modes of delivering Processing Instruction and meaning-based output instruction on Italian and French subjunctive

DOI: 10.1558/equinox.21808

Blurb:

This chapter presents the possible effects of PI and MOI and contrasts different forms of delivering the two instructional treatments on the acquisition of Italian and French subjunctive, in particular, the subjunctive involving expressions of doubt, uncertainty, or disbelief.
PI consists of explicit information about the target feature followed by practice through structured input activities, and MOI contains the same explicit information as in the case of the PI treatment followed by an output type of practice through structured output activities.
