Beyond Interaction Theory in SLA

In SLA-Second Language Acquisition, the hypothesis named Interaction Hypothesis is created. According to this theory, we may as well negotiate and notice the meaning in communication. Utilizing this, let me claim that communication creates new consciousness in the attendees. 

We have our own consciousness by ourselves, but we could be absorbing into the new system of consciousness in communication, not one for ourselves alone. There, our attention to any stimuli can be strengthen. It can lead us to neo-users of a language while we stay in the context of the communication-we could call it "community." 

For example, you may have experienced the improvement of your listening during the conversation. However, once you left the communication system, you may well notice that you only remember the contents of you or the other attendees in your mother tongue. Thus, the influence of the participation in another system could be stronger than we expect.

 Thinking of SLA, we should not concentrate too much on the solo system of ours but had better regard the acquisition as the integral creature, or we miss the fundamental elements.
