Abstract	This book defines the concept of language; examines what pupils do when they learn, recall, and transfer information; and explains how cognitive processes and language processes differ during various maturational levels and among various experiential settings. Subjects dealt with include: four models by which language can be studied; the elements of language and the way they affect behavior; cognitive development from the vantage point of Piaget's theyry; the stages of language development; the factors affecting concept formation and acquisition; the way language can be used to relate new material to the learner's knowledge structures; the contemporary view of memory and retrieval; the teaching of reading and the differences between beginning and fluent readers; various means of increasing reading comprehension; ways that language is related to status, prestige, and power; and the learning of a second language.
