Course Content (Syllabus)
Education could be regarded as a privileged field of linguistics, since the learning process is primarily carried out through language. The wealth of linguistics-based research related to education and language education is no coincidence. However, relevant research is fragmented, mainly focuses on classroom discourse analysis and does not provide a coherent theoretical and methodological framework for dynamically understanding the subject of language teaching, of learning processes, in general, and of schools as historical institutions. The main aim of this course is to bridge this gap using theories (mainly) from the field of social semiotics (Halliday, Fairclough, Kress, van Leeuwen) and traditions of classroom discourse analysis
