The Effects of Task Types on Communication Strategies in SLA: Looking Back and Forward
Rong Xiao, Chaowei Pang, and Xiaobo Liang
Abstract—Studies on the effects of task types on
Communication Strategies (CSs) in second language acquisition
(SLA) have been carried out for more than two decades and
have made great contribution to the development of second
language teaching and acquisition. This paper mainly reviews
the existing empirical studies to investigate how different task
types employed can lead to the application of various CSs by L2
learners. The existing literatures are reviewed under the scope
of three periods: the initial attempts, further investigation and
recent studies. It is found that existing research has
demonstrated well that both the frequency and the type of CSs
are influenced by the tasks under completion. Albeit more
systematic and rigorous studies are still called for to further
support the findings of some studies and further CS research
from newer and broader perspectives are still needed. The
paper concludes with a discussion of the implications of these
findings for SLA in English as second language (ESL)
classrooms.
