Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
This lecture course forms the first part of a one-year introductory program that aims at providing first-year students of English with an overview of the major areas of linguistic knowledge. In the first semester, we investigate the meanings of words and sentences (semantics). We then consider how language varies in relation to different social and geographical factors and how this variation may be described (sociolinguistics). We examine how language functions in communication and how humans use language to create meaning in interaction (pragmatics, discourse analysis). Finally, we analyze the ways in which children learn their first language (first language acquisition) and in which people learn further languages at a later stage (second language acquisition).This means that the course familiarizes students with the basic principles of semantics, sociolinguistics, pragmatics, discourse analysis, first and second language acquisition. Students will also be able to apply their knowledge to English texts.Please note that the following classes accompany the lecture course:Tutorium (2 parallel groups) - check u:find for current dates and times.These courses are an additional offer to help you pass the exam, attendance is not mandatory.

Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab
Minimum requirement for a pass: Both parts 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. If you get a 1 (Sehr gut) in one exam, you only need 52% in the other exam to pass the Modulprüfung. If you get a 2 (Gut) in one exam, you only need 54% in the other exam to pass the Modulprüfung.Average score (both parts) - Grade
100% - 85% --> 1
84% - 77% --> 2
76% - 69% --> 3
68% - 60% --> 4
59% - 00% --> 5
The average score on both parts (ISL1 and LA) is rounded up/down to the nearest whole number (integer) to work out the final grade.
