This course will give an overview of Artificial Grammar, one of the techniques used to study the cognitive aspect of language learning as well as my own experience as a Research Assistant in an Artificial Grammar Ph.D. project. I will also focus on new language learning models that are being designed to illustrate the complexity of human learning behaviour, such as the statistical learning model.
