Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel
The grade will be based on 1) the oral presentation of a scientific article (30% of grade), 2) one written homework assignment designed to assess integration and understanding of the material presented in the course and of mandatory readings (30% of grade), 3) performance during a debate (20% of grade) and 4) class participation (20% of grade).
Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab
To pass, students will be required to present a scientific paper (30%), to do a written assignment (30%), to participate in a debate (20%) and to participate actively in the seminar, asking questions and contributing to discussions (20%). Also, to receive credit for the seminar you cannot miss more than one session, AND you can only deregister within the first 2 days after the first session – by Wednesday November 30th (i.e. after that, de-registrations will result in an insufficient grade). Also, should you miss a session you will be asked to complete an extra assignment on the topic of the missed lecture.
Prüfungsstoff
The content of the lectures, the readings and the discussions that take place during the seminar will be relevant for the homework assignment.

1. To acquire knowledge about the socio-cognitive bases of bilingualism.
2. To develop critical reading skills.Course description:
The seminar, which will take place entirely in English and will be co-taught by Dr Olga Kepinska, will provide an overview of the state of the art regarding the socio-cognitive aspects of bilingualism, regarding its neural bases, and regarding advantages and challenges linked to bi- and multilingualism, this being the norm in many places around the world. Students will learn about different types of bilingualism, about the advantages and challenges that accompany the mastery of two or more languages, as well as contradictory behavioral and brain imaging findings related to executive / cognitive advantages linked to bilingualism. We will also address bilingualism from a social point of view, and discuss bilingualism-related policy issues. Students will also learn about neural differences or changes (i.e. plasticity) arising from learning a second (or more) language(s).There are no prerequisites for taking this seminar. It will include introductions to brain imaging methods, and to neuroanatomy and to the functional anatomy of language. Solid knowledge of spoken and written English is, however, required.
