230632 Approaches and Methods in English Language Teaching (Secondary Schools) (S) (WiSe 2025/2026)

Contents, comment

What does it mean to teach a language as a means of actual communication? Which methods can support students in actually exchanging information and opinions in a meaningful way in the foreign language? In this course we will learn about, try out and reflect on different approaches to communicative language teaching: ranging from activities to encourage students to communicate and collaborate in the classroom, using drama-pedagogical elements, to task-based learning and possibilities of teaching beyond the classroom and in inclusive learning groups.
