The course covers selected issues in teaching English as a foreign language, including heterogeneity, in the EFL-classroom & findings from neuroscience, and gives insight into relevant studies and other scholarly publications. These will be critically discussed by the participants together with the lecturer, and linked to theoretical foundations, to the current body of knowledge and to practical considerations. Drawing on this broad base of knowledge, students will be encouraged to reflect on their own conceptions and beliefs about the EFL-classroom, on choices and actions as decisive factors of their professional expertise.

Concurrently, students will widen and employ their knowledge of research methods for example to investigate interaction in the EFL-classroom. Special emphasis will be placed on the question of how to write a Master’s thesis in English Didactics.

Students are expected to attend class regularly and to participate actively, which includes a presentation (“Referat (ca. 10 Minuten) mit Ausarbeitung (ca. 5 Seiten)”).

Focus areas:

How to write a theoretical or an empirical Master’s thesis
Understanding/carrying out research in the EFL-classroom

Course structure: Lectures, seminars, group work, presentations plus feedback, and discussions.
