Course Information

Intended learning outcomes

The aim of the course is to develop your general proficiency in English through improving your knowledge of grammar and vocabulary.  Course work will focus on essential grammar (tenses, modals and semi-modals, linking verbs, passives, questions, verb complementation, reporting, agreement and articles) and on expanding your lexical range on a broad variety of general and advanced topics.


Teaching methodology

  • lecture and practice
  • student contributions on pertinent topics related to lexical development and grammar
  • self-study and workshops
  • blended learning

Course content

Prior knowledge expected

English language proficiency at B2+ level according to the CEFR = 75 point score on the Oxford Placement Test

Curricular registration requirements

For B.A. students (612), the Oxford Placement Test is part of the STEOP and should be completed as quickly as possible (you should not complete more than 22 ECTS without having completed your STEOP). B.A. students can be accepted into Language Awareness 1 (Sprachliches Grund- und Aufbaustudium Language) without the OPT, but their grades do not become valid in ZEUS until they have completed the OPT.

For “Lehramt”/UF/B.Ed. students (407), the OPT is a requirement without which they cannot be accepted into Language Awareness 1 (see Module ENA, Placement Test ENA.001).

Literature

English Vocabulary in Use (Upper-intermediate) by Michael McCarthy and Felicity O'Dell, fourth edition (2017).

More literature will be available on Moodle.
