Course Content (Syllabus)
The course focuses on the methods of data collection and analysis of Didactics and Methodology for language teaching. Among the various research methods, such as questionnaires, protocols, interviews or introspection, there is also data collection by recording lessons that are then transcribed and analysed (field research). A model within which the latter case can be easily couched is Functional Pragmatics, which is the focus of the seminar. After an introduction to the possibilities of field research, the aim of the seminar is to familiarize students (max. 30 students) with the theory of Functional Pragmatics, as developed by Konrad Ehlich and Jochen Rehbein since 1972. The study of classroom communication examines, among other things, the differences between lesson planning and what really happens during the class and thus contributes to improving teaching practice. The aim of the seminar is for students to get acquainted with this theory and carry out their own research at schools. The approach will be interdisciplinary: we will attempt to combine pragmatics and didactics. In the second part of the seminar, students will analyze original transcribed material and present their work in the seminar.
