It is planned to conduct this class in a hybrid format (digital and classroom presence). At this stage it is unclear whether it will be possible to return to a format of classroom presence during the semester.

It is taken for granted that pupils have to learn grammar. However, it is far from being trivial to decide which grammatical (as well as lexical and pragmatic) items are relevant for the acquisition process. In this preparatory course we will discuss the relevance of grammatical input. In our projects (summer term) we can then observe and analyse actual input. We will focus on grammatical categories, but lexical and pragmatic questions can also be dealt with.
