Content
The course combines practical writing and reading comprehension seminars with more formal sessions (straightforward teaching, structural and vocabulary practice, error-analysis and hesitation-resolution).
- The first part of the course aims at discovering a communicative situation on the basis of some form of input (e.g. a text, an audio or video podcast). The learner will familiarize themselves with the subject through groupwork activities.
- The second part will focus on the text-production adapted to the communicative situation elaborated earlier (field, genre, typology and target-audience).
Teaching methods
This course essentially adopts a CLIL-oriented approach (Content-Language Intergrated Learning). This means several themes will be dealt with (historical, cultural, literary, etc.) before initiating the practical writing sessions, which are aimed at producing the various written genres that are the objective of this course.
The students will be exposed to various linguistic inputs, will have to solve the various tasks proposed, using group- and individual writing approaches.
Eventually, a lot of time will be spent on feedback, self-reflection and self-correction.
