Inhalt
Description

In this seminar, we will combine linguistic and pedagogical perspectives on English grammar, with a view to crossing the traditional disciplinary boundary between these areas of study. The following key aspects will be in focus: teaching practice, linguistic and corpus-based research on grammar, descriptive and prescriptive rule formulations, learners development of grammatical competence, and practical implications.

Current linguistic perspectives on English grammar are firmly grounded in empirical data collection (most prominently electronic text corpora), which highlights the existence of variation between alternative grammatical structures and tries to find patterns in them. In this way, we will gain insights into cognitive (speaker-internal) factors underlying language production and perception as well as situational (speaker-external) factors, such as degrees of formality and regional varieties (e.g. British and American English). We will also consider the role of grammar rules , both the prescriptive ones targeting native speakers and the pedagogical ones contained in textbooks for foreign language learners. In addition, students will gain an insight into current teaching practice and related challenges by examining teachers perspectives in research interviews. Against this background, we will explore different approaches to grammar teaching as well as central principles for motivating and effective grammar instruction. Textbook rules and pedagogical materials will be evaluated against the evidence of actual usage attested in text corpora. Finally, students will get an opportunity to experiment with and develop digital content related to grammar instruction both from a linguistic and pedagogic perspective.

Please note:

The seminar will take place in the digital language laboratory (SprachenLLab) on six Mondays (8-12 am), so there will be plenty of opportunities for students to experiment with and develop (digital and corpus-based) materials.
As the seminar is condensed into a 6-week intensive course, participants must be prepared to devote a considerable amount of time to attendance and coursework in November and December.
The deadline for portfolios/seminar papers is 31 March 2023.
