Innehåll

The course develops the ability to teach in English. It interconnects theoretical perspectives,
approaches and concepts, such as English as a Foreign Language (EFL), English as a Medium of
Instruction (EMI), English for Specific Purposes (ESP) and Content and Language Integrated
Learning (CLIL) together with pedagogical methods and scaffolding language learning
strategies. Common strategies are compared and contrasted, with a focus on developing the
ability to effectively choose and utilize multiple language strategies for facilitating teaching. This
includes practical applications as described in research and professional experience that can
effectively be used as tools to increase range and proficiency for both teachers and students. The
content of the course contributes to transformational teaching practices in direct connection with
the student's teaching and learning practices.

The horizontal aims are strengthening and empowering the teacher to solve problems in
pedagogical environments, promote and participate in collegial learning and co-agency,
expanding their pedagogical repertoire to facilitate life-long learning.

Undervisningsformer

Self-directed learning, micro-lectures, workshops, tutorials and mentoring sessions, as well as
seminars, group discussions, and similar types of instruction. The teaching is conducted mainly
in English, but the student's native language and Swedish may be used.

Undervisningen bedrivs på engelska.

Förkunskapskrav

Kandidat- eller yrkesexamen, 180 hp samt anställning som universitetslärare, doktorand eller motsvarande samt lägst betyget godkänt i engelska 5 eller motsvarande.

Examination och betyg

Kursen bedöms med betygen Underkänd eller Godkänd.

The examination is based on the intended learning outcomes.

The examination must allow for students to be assessed on an individual basis. Further information concerning assessment of specific intended learning outcomes and grading criteria is provided in a study guide distributed at the beginning of the course.

The examination consists of a series of seminars. Participation is required in seminars as well as in peer learning and collegial learning processes, as the ILOs regarding judgment and approach are evaluated holistically. The final grade of the course is issued only when all course assignments have been passed.

Students are guaranteed a minimum of three attempts to pass an examination, including the regular attempt.

If a student has failed the same examination three times, the student can request that the next attempt be graded by a new examiner. The decision to accept or reject such a request is made by the associate dean of education.
