Aims, contents and method of the course

Content:
This course deals with the language produced by learners of English. This includes spoken and written, planned and spontaneous production of beginners as well as advanced learners of English as a foreign and/or second language. During the input phase of the seminar we will discuss how different different language learning theories see the status of learner language. We will examine different types of learner language, consider learner corpora and gain an overview of different approaches to the linguistic analysis of learner language. After the initial input phase, participants will work on their individual or group projects.
Aims:
Students will get to know a range of theoretical and methodological approaches to the language produced by learners of English and will be able to apply them to student texts. For their BA-thesis, participants will undertake an analysis of a small corpus of learner language according to a specific theoretical and methodological perspective chosen by them

Methods: mini-lectures, presentations, readings, interactive discussion, group work, assignments, individual reading and research

Extra information for students in the ‘Diplom-Lehramtsstudium UF Englisch’):
You can register for this course (which is course 2 of the ESP module “Teaching English for Specific Purposes”) as ‘Freies Wahlfach’. Please note that you will be signed in after the BEd students, for whom this is a compulsory class, have been assigned places.
