Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to provide introduction to the area of very early language learning. Students will learn the characteristics of children between the age of two and six and will gain the basics of preprimary education. Furthermore, they will gain insights into first language acquisition. The main focus will be on second language acquisition in linguistically homogeneous environment. They will learn to create favourable conditions for second language acquisition as well as didactic principles and other aspects of the process. Apart from internalising theoretical principles students will also learn to construct a syllabus and plan a lesson. The students will also také part in a microteaching performance.
On the basis of theoretical background students will be able to apply relevant didactic principles in both long-term and short-term planning, i. e . in syllabus design and in lesson planning.
