Teaching culture is an integral part of teaching a language. However, teaching English-speaking cultures is no longer restricted to learning facts about the US and UK. Cultural learning can take place close to home - in every day life locally as well as globally, accessible online. Digital media change cultural participation and can be used for exploring (sub-)cultures online and offline. In this course, we will examine how such a renewed understanding of teaching culture affects classroom practices and you will design your own task-based units of teaching culture beyond the (traditional) classroom.
The course will be held digitally this term, step-by-step instructions for module tasks as well as times and possibilities for direct interaction later in the term will be coordinated on Lernraum+ which will be launched at the time of the first session.

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.
