ED 446 - Socio-Linguistics Teachers Credits: 3
This class is designed to give pre-service teachers, practicing teachers, and teacher-researchers an overview of the structure and functions of spoken and written language in diverse discourse communities. Students will engage in intensive study and practice of the methods involved in sociolinguistic research and discourse analysis. Emphasis is placed on how language is acquired (both grammatical and communicative competence) and how we can support language and literacy learning in school settings by drawing on our students’ existing competencies in different discourse communities. Students must have at least junior standing to register for this course.
