I have never heard about the concept of "notocing", but I can understand that is the process of paying attention to meaning and form, during the learning process.
Analysing my learning experience, I can say that during all the school years I was focused on form, only form. My teachers only tought me grammar rules and structures. Because of that, I could never understand anything in English in those years. I was not focused on meaning.
When I decided to follow the English minor at University, I focused all my attention on meaning. Then I realised that my tecahers at school didn't give me the appropiate comprehensible input that I needed to understand the language.
Jóse, do you remember conciously changing previous language or "acquiring" new language by either noticing how others use it or noticing gaps in your own ability?
