Curriculum
The course consists of four modules and a dissertation, which includes research methods training.
It is informed by a variety of areas within the field of applied linguistics, ranging from a description of English to an examination of how a language is acquired.
For instance, in the Second Language Acquisition module, you will learn about the developmental stages of language acquisition and how learning a second language when the brain has matured differs from learning your first language during the various stages of childhood.
In the ELT and its Contexts module, emphasis is placed on the sensitivity to local culture and beliefs and how they inform your teaching.
For example, how do you avoid coming across as patronising? And how can you incorporate an inter-language stage such as Indian English or Malaysian English into the teaching process so that your learners do not feel alienated by a language that belongs to a different culture and tradition?
Through study and active data collection, you will also become familiar with the principles and practice of action research.
