| Research Abstract |
In this study, attempts were made to address the following research questions :
1)Does the use of a communication strategy in an attempt to solve a linguistic problem in production facilitate the noticing of the relevant linguistic form in the subsequent input and the acquisition of it? ;
2)Does the degree of difference between the alternative form produced by a learner using a communication strategy and the target form he/she could not produce affect the noticing of the relevant linguistic form in the subsequent input and the acquisition of it?
The results of the study gave the following answers to each of the questions :
1)The use of a communication strategy in an attempt to solve a linguistic problem in production facilitated the noticing of the relevant linguistic form in the subsequent input and the acquisition of it? ;
2)The degree of difference between the alternative form produced by a learner using a communication strategy and the target form he/she could not produce affected the noticing of the relevant linguistic form in the subsequent input and the acquisition of it, with the similarity between the two facilitating both the noticing and the acquisition.
