Lote Curriculum and Teaching 4

This unit will encourage students to examine closely the difference between immersion and classroom instructed second language acquisition and its practical implications, particularly as they relate to the fostering of the communicative approach in the teaching of the main language skills. Students will learn how to enhance learners’ strengths and how to help their weaknesses in their first language through the acquisition process of another language. Students will expand their knowledge of how to best cater for different learning styles in the classroom, and they will be offered the opportunity to develop teaching materials based on best teaching practices, including the use of ICT technology, which are particularly suitable for assessment purposes. Students will be come familiar with the basic principles of how to set up and organize classroom-based research involving young second language learners.
