Cursusdoelen
 After this course you can: 
  • conduct your own investigation of specialist discourse
  • conduct, triangulate and critically assess a needs analysis
  • formulate challenging and achievable course objectives
  • translate a client’s needs into a course, applying appropriate course and syllabus design methods
  • design new materials and adapt existing materials, choosing and applying consistently appropriate methodologies
  • assess the results and efficiency of the course and/or materials you have developed
Inhoud
This course combines a theoretical introduction to the field of Language for Specific Purposes (LSP) with a sizeable amount of practical training. In the first block, you will learn how to analyse your prospective clients' linguistic needs through a well-designed, triangulated needs analysis and you will learn about different methods that are used for investigating specialist discourse. You will also put your knowledge into practice by conducting and reporting on a needs analysis for a group of clients of your own choice.

The second block will focus on course and syllabus design, materials production and evaluation. You will simultaneously apply what you are learning: you will design a short course, informed by the needs analysis you conducted in the first block.
