| Research Abstract |
This study longitudinally examined second language development of undergraduates taking a task-based course of English as a foreign language. The course centered around tasks requiring the welfare majors to engage in explaining care work professionalism to foreign care work trainees. The developmental trajectories of the learners exhibited variable phases after initial low stable stages. The intra-individual variability suggests changes were taking place with task experience.
