Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

This course is planned to present an overview and in-depth discussion of a special field in psycholinguistics, namely language acquisition and language learning. After two introductory sessions we will discuss classic and hot topics together with important and partly controversial papers. The aim is to develop and train the student's ability to critically read and evaluate empirical work in the language sciences and relate empirical findings to models and theories in the field. Students will train this ability by weekly reading tasks, obligatory oral presentations, active participation and a written term paper on a topic of the seminar.

Assessment and permitted materials

Student progress will be evaluated by three measures:
1. Term paper (~6000 words). The term paper will enable the student to explore a topic of his/her choice in greater depth. Students will be free to write term papers in either German or English. (50%)
2. active participation including weekly reading assignments and submission of comments/questions (20%)
3. in class presentation of a paper/topic in one of the seminar sessions (30%)

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

No prior background in psycholinguistics is assumed. Solid knowledge of English is necessary.

Examination topics

Reading list

Students will read various original papers from the literature on language acquisition and language learning (provided via moodle). General background knowledge can be found in
