  • Greek (Instruction, Examination)
Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of the course, students are expected to: • have a deep knowledge of basic concepts and tools of morphological analysis • understand and recognize the basic morphological processes, such as: inflection, derivation, compounding • realize and recognize the interaction between them as well as the borderline cases • realize the role of basic morphological processes in word formation • use morphological analysis as a tool in order to create special exercises or activities for teaching the morphology of Italian and Greek as a second / foreign language.
General Competences
  • Apply knowledge in practice
  • Work autonomously
  • Work in teams
  • Work in an international context
  • Work in an interdisciplinary team
  • Generate new research ideas
  • Advance free, creative and causative thinking
Course Content (Syllabus)
The aim of the course is to familiarize students with the basic concepts and tools of morphological analysis adopted in the scientific field of morphology, consolidating and expanding the knowledge they will have acquired after completing the course Morphology I. Then, after a thorough and comparative analysis of the word-formation processes, that is inflection, derivation and compounding in Italian and Greek, students will deepen through exercises in the aforementioned morphological processes. Upon completion of the course students are expected to be able to design their own material for teaching the basic morphological processes of Italian both as a first and as a second/foreign language.

WRITTEN FINAL EXAMS (the examination covers the entire subject of the course). Students are expected to answer exercises (on linguistic theory and the application of linguistic analysis) and theory development questions. For the exercises the evaluation criteria are: 1. Accuracy. 2. Correctness. For the theoretical questions the evaluation criteria are the following: 1. Accuracy and clarity. 2. Avoiding redundant information.
