CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Q: What is Chomsky ‘s Hypothesis? Chomsky’s Hypothesis also called the Innateness Hypothesis, postulates that children are innately born with a sense of language and grammar.

Detailed explanation-2: -Learners acquire grammatical structures in a natural order, but conscious language rules are not developed until later. Once a student has conscious knowledge of grammatical structures, they are able to edit, or self-monitor, oral and written language. This process requires adequate time to develop.

Detailed explanation-3: -Chomsky’s theories involve the idea that some language learning ability is innate – a part of the human mind. Krashen emphasizes the social and interpersonal aspects of language. The distinction between interpersonal and academic language are the basis of Cummins’ work.

Detailed explanation-4: -Chomsky believes that language is biologically inherited whereas Skinner’s theory is based on how a child learns how to talk through the use of positive reinforcement from adults who already speak a language fluently.
