Various psycholinguistics strategies applied to the acquisition of second and third language has become a prominent phenomenon in the last few decades. Yet there is paucity in the third language acquisition. The psycholinguistics strategies are used by few experts to teach second or third language. In this realm the cognitive method is used to acquire the language. The psycholinguistics principles bring out how one perceives the language and produces that particular language is important. While acquiring a third language from the medium of second language there is transference of second language rather than the first language to third language. Usually the structure of the second language is transferred to the third language. The learners commit errors when they acquire third language from the medium of second language. Normally the four skills of language acquisition are applied in the strategies of language acquisition. This article explains how psycholinguistic strategies affect the learning while acquiring a third language from the second language and how to rectify the committed errors.

Strategies of psycholinguistics on the acquisition of third language from the second language

This research paper is a case based study on the response of engineering facilitators to faculty development training programs. It reports about how technology is dominating the field of training to facilitators. It deals with the participation trends at the academic Staff College of VIT University and draws conclusions towards how some of the challenges related to training engineering faculty can be dealt with. This is done in comparison with the suggestions given by the previous researches done in this area. The recommendations are applicable in several other institutions to overcome existing challenges in training Engineering Faculty. It explores possible challenges along with possible solutions towards helping engineering faculty members to attend training programs. It is time for employers and employees to look at training as an investment rather than as an expense. © IAEME Publication.
