This class will be taught in a digital format. At this stage it is unclear whether it will be possible to return to a format of classroom presence during the semester.

This course will (mainly) be taught online. In order to participate you will need an internet connnection with a working microphone AND camera.
There will be an input session each week so you will need to be available on the day and at the time you have enrolled for.

Applied Linguistics is an umbrella term that covers a wide set of areas of study and work focusing on the application of linguistic description and theory. In this course we will give an overwview of what applied linguists do.  A major area of application, of course, is second language teaching. However, we will also look at other issues such as language policy, language therapy, discourse analysis or forensic linguistics.
