Lerninhalte |
What is the difference between the acquisition of one's native language and the acquisition of a second language? Does language instruction influence the way a second language is learned, and if so, in what ways? What are beneficial ways of instruction, which render the acquisition of a second language in the classroom context most effective for different types of learners?
The study of ISLA (Instructed Second Language Acquisition) is concerned with theoretical and empirical foundations to these questions. Based on these foundations, this course is designed to shed light on these and related issues, and to introduce different theories of language learning and teaching.
This is a 4.5 credit point class, which amounts to 135 hrs of workload throughout the semester, including an individual portfolio with reading notes of the texts for each session, and a final exam. The class will be offered each semester.
