One of the most ambitious theories of the second-language learning process is Stephen Krashen's Monitor Model, which stresses the importance of subconscious acquisition. This paper critically examines two of the five hypotheses of his model. First, the Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis is studied. Krashen maintains that subconscious language acquisition is distinct from conscious language learning and that "learning does not turn into acquisition." (1982:83)I contrast his argument with that of Schmidt, who argues that "intake is that part of input that the learner notices." (1990:139)Second, Krashen's Input Hypothesis is examined. I point out the inconsistencies in his logic and introduce Ellis' study(1987)that shows how conscious learning facilitates adult second language acquisition. The paper ends with a conclusion that given the current state of English education in Japan, conscious language learning is as important as unconscious acquisition for a learner if he/she is to effectively utilize the input received in classrooms.
