FLAN 510 - Linguistics and Methods of Teaching Native Language Arts 3 s.h.


This course introduces linguistics and linguistic diversity, emphasizing the history of linguistics (e.g. Behaviorism, Cognitivism), prescriptive and descriptive modes of language study (e.g. de Saussure vs Chomsky), the various branches of linguistics (i.e. Phonology, Morphology, Syntax, etc.,) and how each branch varies between language families. Sociolinguistic concepts on Bilingualism will be observed in classrooms through the design of activities aimed to nurture the Native Language Arts (NLAs) in bilingual students.
