Aims, contents and method of the course
Contents and aims
The course focuses on the three main categories of ELT methodology: language, learning and teaching. Student teachers of English understand new developments and controversial issues in the field of English language teaching. Additionally they are assisted in the process of self-evaluating their professional development.
We will discuss the following topics:
- The relevance of theory for teaching practice;
- EFL teaching as a profession;
- Learner differences, learner training, learner-focused teaching;
- Connections between the CEFR, educational standards, ELP & EPOSTL, E8 Standards testing, and the "Neue Matura";
- A critical look at communicative language teaching and current trends, including topics like ELF, multilingual classrooms; authenticity of materials etc.
- Approaches to EFL teaching: trying out and evaluating selected approaches & methods to EFL teaching; issues of a post-method era.
MethodsThis course can only offer a survey of the vibrant research field(s) concerned with language teaching methodology. Focusing on the three central factors language, learning and teaching we will discuss the following topics:• Approaches to EFL teaching: trying out and evaluating selected approaches to EFL teaching plus “the post-method era”
o Critical evaluation of CLT
o English as a lingua franca and its influence on teaching
• Principle of research-based teaching: The relevance of "theory" for teaching practice; EFL teaching as a profession
• Principle of accountability in teaching: Connection between CEFR, educational standards, ELP & EPOSTL, E8 standards testing, and “Neue Matura”
• Principle of inclusion: multilingual classroom, diversely able studentsGroup activities, discussions, short presentations by the lecturer and by students, peer teaching sessions.
