Update: 02.11. All classes in November will be digital (collaborate).

HYBRID with Collaborate, i.e. a mixture of on-site and online sessions in class time is planned. There is space for 14 students in SR4. That means that half of the class comes to the on-site session in week 1 and the other half the following week. Those who cannot attend on-site will follow the class live via collaborate. Bring along your laptop/tablet/smartphone and headphones/mic/headset – we will use breakout rooms on-site too! We’ll then see what works best in practice. More details about signing up in moodle.

* Planned f2f classes on-site: all three presentation sessions in December and 26.01., depending on the situation...

Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Contents and aims:
This course offers a survey of the vibrant research field(s) concerned with language teaching methodology. Focusing on the three central factors of language, learning and teaching we will discuss the following topics:
* Principle of research-based teaching: the relevance of 'theory' for teaching practice; EFL teaching as a profession
* Principle of accountability in teaching: connections between the CEFR, educational standards, ELP & EPOSTL, E8 Standards testing, and the 'Neue Matura'
* Principle of inclusion: the multilingual classroom, diversely able students
* A critical look at communicative language teaching and current trends, including topics like ELF, the authenticity of materials, learner differences, learner training, learner-focused teaching, etc.
* Approaches to EFL teaching: trying out and evaluating selected approaches to EFL teaching plus 'the post-method era'

Methods:
Group activities, discussions, short presentations by the lecturer and by students, peer teaching sessions.

Assessment and permitted materials

Course work (active participation in class activities, regular reading & other assignments, participation in online discussions & moodle activities, etc.); presenting an approach (group presentation/peer teaching); two-part written exam.

Examination topics
