Profile:
John Rogers is an Assistant Professor in the Department of English and Communication at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University.
My research is focused on how second languages are learned and how they might best be taught. I have a particular interest in the cognitive processes that underlie second language development. My research is empirical and has investigated topics such as the effects of second language practice, intentional vs. incidental learning, the development of implicit and explicit knowledge, task-based language teaching, and methodological issues related to research in these areas.
