Course Description:
'' The 37-unit MATESOL degree program is distinguished for its solid foundation in the fields of linguistics, language pedagogy and applied linguistics research. Students receive training in a broad range of topics important to the development of language education professionals. An example of one of the required program courses which incorporates a broad understanding of these fields is Structure of English.
The Structure of English seminar examines the grammar of spoken and written English, focusing on how English grammar functions in authentic discourse. Current research on the topic is discussed during the seminar while students are asked to consider the role of English grammar in classroom instruction. As part of the course students review and create materials for English grammar instruction, combining the theoretical with the practical.
Another feature of the program is the project work completed by students throughout their program of study. Every course requires students to complete one or more projects as a means of academic and professional growth and for course evaluation. An example of such a project is the original language assessment tool created in the Language Assessment seminar. Students are required to develop an assessment tool for a real student population, then administer the test with the population and, afterwords, determine the strengths and weaknesses of the test. Finally, the student must write and present an in-depth report on the assessment tool, including descriptive and statistical analysis.
