An Interactionist Model
After Chapelle, 1998, Fig. 2, p. 23 (see also, Swain, 1985).

__//**Notes:**//__ With the interactionist model, noticing (or "apperception") becomes important--you can't learn what you weren't aware of--in order to have both comprehension and intake (or "uptake"), and thus integrate what is noticed into the current interlanguage system. Output is a natural result of intake and integration.
