Aims, contents and method of the course

Contents:

Building on the introductory module (STEOP), this course discusses the basics and ethics of academic writing and research methodology with the help of hands-on examples from English linguistics. Students will apply some of the methods introduced in the course to real language data and will present the findings of their projects in class.

Prerequisites:

While this is not a requirement, we strongly suggest that you complete at least ILSS1, but ideally also ILSS2 before taking this course. Writing skills such as paragraphing (topic sentence, support,...) and having a clear line of argumentation are taken for granted and a basic understanding of the structure of an in-text citation will prove helpful.

Also, be aware of the fact that this is a 6-ECT course (total workload of about 150 hours), so be prepared to invest an average of 10 hours of work each week into this class (less in the beginning, more towards the end of the semester).

In this course, students are made familiar with:

- The basic principles and ethics of academic research

- Evaluating academic sources

- Basic ways of collecting and handling data

- The basic conventions of academic writing

Students are able to:

- carry out a guided research project in English linguistics based on knowledge acquired in the introductory module (STEOP)

Methods:

Group interaction, presentations, reading, discussions, lecturer input, autonomous research and academic writing

Assessment and permitted materials

- participation in class

- homework assignments

- quizzes

- group presentation

- individual mini-paper

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

Please, understand that this is a 6-ECTS course, which means about 150 hours of work, only 18 of which are class time. So, you will spend about 8 hours a week in addition to the contact hours working for this course. You need to be able to dedicate that much time to it.

60% total

Pass grades on at least 3 out of the five main assignments (bibliography, essay, presentation, 1st draft of paper, remedial exercise).

Completion and submission of all tasks on time and in full.

Examination topics

Group interaction, presentations, discussions, lecturer input, autonomous research and academic writing
