| This module is aimed at students interested in the teaching of English at secondary level in Mauritius.
In the first part of the module, the theories underlying some language teaching approaches will be
explored before looking at the language teaching methods themselves. In the second part of the
module, local issues will be considered, such as: the local language teaching context, the curriculum,
choice of texts, assessment criteria and the development of materials. The aim of the second part of
the module is to encourage students to generate and produce materials for use in real local
classrooms, as well as to help students develop teaching practices they find appropriate for the
context where they will be teaching. Workshops and seminars will be the main teaching approach
used for this module. The continuous assessment will count for 50% of the overall percentage mark
of the module. |
