We propose that Cognitive Academic Language Proficiency, or Academic proficiency, can be analyzed as containing two components: (1) Academic language, characterized by complex syntax, academic vocabulary, and a complex discourse style. It has been assumed that academic language can be analyzed and taught directly, but this is an empirical question, open to investigation. (2) Academic content, the content of subjects such as algebra, history, literature, etc. Related to each component are strategies that serve to make input more comprehensible and thereby help in the acquisition of academic language, and strategies that help us learn new concepts and facts.
