Making a Change: Introducing Critical Pedagogy and Critical Literacy into EFL classrooms - Einzelansicht

This seminar introduces prospective English language teachers to the theoretical and pedagogical frameworks of critical pedagogy and literacy to enable them 1) to reflect on today’s role and responsibility of language teachers, 2) to recognize the intersection of language teaching and issues of discrimination in terms of race, social class, religion or gender and 3) to critically analyze textbook materials and classroom practices to see how particular worldviews, identities, and voices are represented, silenced or omitted. These insights will be of importance for the virtual exchange with students from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, USA. The virtual exchange with students from the U.S. will take place on four dates within our seminar time (4:15 – 5:45 pm):

24.1.2022, 31.1. 2022, 07.02.2022, 14.02.2022.

Please note: Participation in the virtual exchange with UNC, Charlotte students is obligatory for the successful participation in this course.
