Welcome to "English for Primary School Teachers years 4-6, 1A"

at Dalarna University

This course is taught online, on Zoom. Recorded material will sometimes be made available on our learning platform.

This course is offered to Teacher Students for primary School.

When you take this course, you will study the following:
 

  • Written Language Proficiency and Language Structure, 3 Credits
  • Oral Language Proficiency, 3 Credits
  • Applied Language Learning and Teaching, 1.5 Credits
  • English Language Learning and Teaching I (ELLT), 7.5 Credits

We hope you engage in inspiring, interesting, and challenging discussions with your teachers and fellow students. As with all courses at Dalarna University, this course has a strong foundation in theory and research.
An important feature in the design of the course is that it connects theory with practice.
For example, we go through oral and written communication skills in English and subject didactic skills that are needed to stimulate young pupils' learning in the subject of English.

We view group work as an important resource in all course activities, made evident by the feedback of previous participants of the course, who highlighted the value of group discussions. Due to the broad scope of the course, it is impossible to go into depth on all topics, but we hope that what you learn will inspire interest and help you develop the tools you need in your continued professional development.

An introduction to the course is scheduled for Monday 11 November at 11.00 am. via Zoom. Here is the ZOOM LINK. 

Course guides and other material will be available under Modules.


Here you can find a schedule for the course (attach file).
