Abstract
In this paper I report on the preliminary results of a longitudinal one-year study of students’ progression from a low level of language awareness manifested in their superficial/intuitive use of language/languages to a higher level of language self-awareness manifested in their more con- trolled use of language. The data gathered for this study include four sources: a language aware- ness questionnaire, think aloud protocols, error analysis and post error analysis in-class discussions. The results of this study are intended to be further explored in a larger research project.
