Aims, contents and method of the course

Content:
Building on the skills and knowledge acquired in PPOCS 1, this course focuses on oral presentation, interaction and mediation skills for future teachers of English.

Special emphasis will be placed on the knowledge and skills needed to facilitate understanding and communication among interlocutors, which includes processes such as managing interaction, facilitating collaboration and encouraging conceptual talk.

Aims:

- to have expert knowledge of the characteristics of spoken language and classroom discourse
