In other words, the same information is encoded more than once, as in a sentence that contains a subject in the third person and a third person in singular.

The processing instruction points to language acquisition in the initial stage of pro-cessing, which is input processing. This instruction not only affects the student also affects their underlying system in such a way that they will eventually be able to incorporate the target form into their output.

Some famous researchers have all emphasized that these guidelines are important and should be considered in designing effective input processing materials.
