230537 Using Visuals Effectively in the EFL Classroom (S) (WiSe 2021/2022)

PRACTICAL ORGANISATION
This seminar will take place in "hybrid synchronous" mode, with a twist. Most of the participants will be at home and participate via Zoom - me included. (This is due to my very high risk status vis-à-vis Covid infection.) Those students who have to or want to be on campus at the time of the seminar can go to the seminar room every week and participate together via Zoom there. Instead of breakouts, these students can form actual groups for the interactive group-work phases. These students MUST please have a) their own devices, so they can follow on Zoom and b) headphones with microphones. Your devices' built-in mics and speakers can't be used in a seminar room, as there is massive echo and feedback if others are using also their devices' built-in mics and speakers nearby. When you speak yourself, you might also have to lift the earphones (but still use the earphones' microphone) or mute your speakers, because otherwise there's an annoying echo. This mode should enable those at home and on campus to participate, however, and at-risk participants to be safe.
SEMINAR CONTENT
In this seminar, we will first examine some of the insights from theory and research on how to use visual material effectively to support language learning and teaching. Subsequently, we will explore practical implementations of visual materials for a wide range of language learning purposes in a variety of different EFL contexts. This practical phase will include creating our own materials as well: don't worry, there will be a highly interactive and entertaining workshop that will prove to you that anyone can draw! This seminar is for students planning to teach at all levels, from primary to upper secondary school (YES, you CAN use pictures in the Oberstufe!)
This digital seminar will take place via material and forums in the Lernraum, the LernraumPlus. Seminar sessions will take place at the designated seminar time via Zoom.
Requirements for participation, required level
-
PM1 courses should generally only be taken after most of the basic modules (BM seminars) have been completed. It is recommended in the Modulhandbuch that they are taken from the 3rd semester of study on.

Student information |
The binding module descriptions contain further information, including specifications on the "types of assignments" students need to complete. In cases where a module description mentions more than one kind of assignment, the respective member of the teaching staff will decide which task(s) they assign the students.
Participants will be expected to analyse and/or create materials and give presentations that showcase visual-based microteaching, using the kinds of materials they will need at the level(s) they are planning to teach at in future. Part of the course requirements are to do regular small drawing tasks (I will take the fear out of drawing, don't worry!) and upload them in portfolios you create in the Lernraum.
