This course is mandatory for all students planning to start their Praxissemester in September 2022. Please note: In summer term 2022, there are three VPS classes available in English (with the others taking place on Wednesday). However, you only need to take ONE of these!
In this class, we will focus on issues related to classroom interaction in ELT such as error correction, comprehensible input, the use of the L1(s), praising (!), and methodology (with a special focus on making learners communicate in English). We will explore these issues with the help of video material from authentic, inclusive English classrooms. In doing so, we will cover the basics of classroom research needed for your practical term, develop first research questions, and draft one research project.
