Informasi Kursus Umum
The MOOC “Basic Knowledge of Linguistics” offers a first basic introduction to the linguistics of German. The focus is on those sub-areas that are particularly relevant in school contexts: These are, on the one hand, linguistic topics that are taught in German lessons at school (e.g. determining parts of speech) and, on the other hand, linguistic concepts that should underlie teachers' actions as part of their professional knowledge (e.g. knowledge of verb position regularities for carrying out language level diagnoses or similar).
The course is aimed at students studying for a teaching degree at primary or secondary level (subject: German) as well as teachers who are already teaching and want to refresh their basic linguistic knowledge. The MOOC does not replace a comprehensive introduction to linguistics, as is usually provided in the relevant teacher training programs, but can be used as a supplement in university teaching, for example in a flipped classroom format. Teachers and students who work through the course content in self-study will find comprehensive references to further literature in the course.
The main focus of the course is on building up basic linguistic knowledge, but each unit also contains perspectives on possibilities for didactization in schools.

Tujuan Kursus
After completing all units of the online course you will...
- be able to explain why one and the same linguistic phenomenon can be captured in grammatical spelling with different terms and justify which terminology is used sensibly in German lessons
- be able to give a basic overview of the sound inventory of the German language and explain which central graphematic principles German spelling follows
- be able to classify simple word types according to linguistic criteria and be able to roughly assess the quality of teaching materials for determining word types
- be able to explain how word meaning and ambiguity can be described and how vocabulary is structured
- be able to make a rough classification of words or linguistic constructions according to varieties and stylistic layers and reflect on this knowledge with regard to norm and appropriateness in students' linguistic products
- be able to analyze simple German sentences using the topological field model and use the model didactically with the help of simple examples in your lessons
- be able to break down simple German sentences into sentence elements and determine the syntactic function of these sentence elements using a simple classification and make basic statements about the didactic quality of corresponding teaching materials
- be able to roughly assess texts written by students with regard to their appropriateness to the text type
- be able to justify which words or linguistic constructions pose a particular acquisition challenge for students
- be familiar enough with all the linguistic categories that should be taken into account when creating a language assessment to be able to carry out such an assessment independently
