Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

Content
This lecture provides an overview of concepts and terminology used in grammatical analysis and demonstrates how these are applied in the analysis of syntactic structures and texts. In this way, this course provides an important foundation for both language classes and linguistics courses.
Aims
- to identify and name the individual parts of syntactic structures (using standard terminology)
- to talk informedly about key grammatical categories and explain their use in a given context
- to recognise and rectify common errors
- to make independent and judicious use of reference books
Methods
The lecture course consists of lectures and an accompanying Moodle course.

Please note that the following classes accompany the lecture course:
* Tutorials (2 parallel groups) – times and venues to be announced on Moodle and in the separate descriptions of the tutorials in u:find.
* Study groups – time and venue to be announced on Moodle
These courses are an additional offer to help you pass the exam; attendance is not mandatory.

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

Written examination (two dates per semester, on site: normally mid-December and end of January), multiple option (90 minute "Modulprüfung" in conjunction with ISL1)

Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab

Minimum pass level: Both parts of the Modulprüfung in combination must reach 60% while one part may not be any lower than 55% (with the other part making up the missing percentages to reach the 60% overall). There are two exceptions to this.
