Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

This course surveys a number of issues in applied linguistics with a focus on language acquisition/learning/teaching. A focus is on how linguistic models of particular acquisition issues can illuminate questions of teaching/learning. Students will be encouraged to reflect on the links between applied linguistic research and language pedagogy. We will explore issues such as the nature of L2 knowledge, whether a foreign language is learned or acquired, how conceptual transfer affects L2 production, etc. Students will:
• be acquainted with key concepts in applied linguistics with respect to language acquisition;
• be able to draw on theoretical and empirical research to develop syntheses;
• be able to clearly present and critique ideas in applied linguistic research;
• be familiar with and able to apply selected applied linguistic research methods.

This course is based on ideas that are introduced in class lectures and reading assignments. It combines reading, practice-based activities, joint discussion, group work, and individual research work leading to a presentation and final written paper (either a bachelor paper or a research report).
