Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

We will ...
... critically review what grammar is/can be (grammar theory)
... work on selected topics (e.g. tense review, conditionals, affixes, gerunds & infinitives, modal verbs, reported speech, relative clauses, the passive, inversion, ...)
... explore the relationship between grammatical and stylistic choices.
... consider the diversity of Englishes
***Students are welcome (and very much encouraged) to suggest topics they would like to see covered***
The language of instruction is English.

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

- Two tests (one written in class without dictionaries, one written as an open-book exam at home)
- Two graded assignments (stylistic analysis & essay/podcast episode)
- Submissions of shorter texts are required for formative feedback only (not graded)

Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab

Test 1 (40%), test 2 (40%), assignments (20%) = final grade

Minimum percentage to achieve a given grade:
90% - 1
80% - 2
70% - 3
60% - 4
59% - 5 (fail)

Students must pass at least one of the tests (=60% or more) in order to pass the course.

Prüfungsstoff

Both tests and the assignments will be based on the topics covered in class. Tests will feature theory-based questions (single choice, multiple choice, and open ended questions) and hands-on tasks (e.g. editing, proofreading, rewriting, completing sentences, etc.)
