course discusses how to
understand theoretical foundations of linguistics and how to apply the
knowledge and skills in linguistics in ELL classrooms and content classrooms.
This
computer-based instruction course is a self-supporting program that provides
instruction, structured practice, and evaluation all on your home or school
computer. Technical support information

Academic Work
Academic work
submitted by the individual (such as papers, assignments, reports, tests) shall
be the student’s own work or appropriately attributed, in part or in whole, to
its correct source. Submission of commercially prepared (or group prepared)
materials as if they are one’s own work is unacceptable.
Aiding
Honesty in Others
The individual will
encourage honesty in others by refraining from providing materials or
information to another person with knowledge that these materials or information
will be used improperly.
Violation of these academic standards will
result in the assignment of a failing grade and subsequent loss of credit for
the course.
Level of Application
This course is designed as an informational course for K–12
teachers, administrators, parents, and related service personnel. Information
discussed is designed to help you better understand linguistics.
Expected Learning Outcomes
As a result of taking this course, participants will
be able to demonstrate their ability to:
1.
Understand the
origins, structure, and development of language and its application to other
areas of humanistic and scientific knowledge.
2.
Understand the
general characteristics of the structure of language, including its
phonological sound system, word structure, and phrase and sentence patterns.
3.
Identify the
terminology used to describe and analyze the structure and systems of language.
4.
Identify basic
principles of linguistic theory.
5.
Consider
linguistic diversity a wealth, not a problem.
Course Description
Information
provided in this course has been divided into four chapters, which should be
completed in the order in which they are presented in the program. Once you
have completed these four chapters, you should have a better understanding of
linguistics. This course will give
you the knowledge and skills to create morphological trees and use the
International Phonetic Alphabet. This course will include discussions on
phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics.
You
are strongly encouraged to read additional journal articles, books, and
research materials outside the course material to gain a better understanding
of current issues related to educating students who are learning English as a
second language.
Chapter 1: What Is Linguistics?
This chapter focuses on the
science and principles of linguistics, including sociolinguistics, pragmatics,
structural linguistics, systemic-functional linguistics, discourse analysis,
text linguistics, deep grammar, and current trends.
Chapter 2: Phonology & Phonetics
Chapter
2 focuses on the knowledge and skills of phonology, phonetics, phonemes, the
International Phonetic Alphabet, and best practices in the classroom.
Chapter 3: Morphology, Semantics, Pragmatics
This chapter
focuses on morphology, semantics, pragmatics, and instructional methods for
teaching these in the ELL classroom and the content classroom.
Chapter 4: Syntax & Pragmatics
This chapter
focuses on syntax, pragmatics, and instructional methods for teaching these in
the ELL classroom and the content classroom.
Student Expectations
As
a student you will be expected to:
·
Complete all four
information sections showing a competent understanding of the material
presented in each section.
·
Complete all four section
examinations, showing a competent understanding of the material presented. You must obtain an overall score of 70% or higher, with no individual exam score below 50%, and successfully
complete ALL writing assignments to pass this course. *Please note: Minimum exam score requirements may vary by
college or university; therefore, you should refer to your course addendum to
determine what your minimum exam score requirements are.
·
Complete a review of any section on which your examination score was
below 50%.
·
Retake any examination, after completing an
information review, to increase that examination score to a minimum of 50%,
making sure to also be achieving an overall exam score of a minimum 70% (maximum
of three attempts). *Please note: Minimum exam score
requirements may vary by college or university; therefore, you should refer to
your course addendum to determine what your minimum exam score requirements
are.
·
Complete all course journal article and essay writing assignments with
the minimum word count shown for each writing assignment.
·
Complete a course evaluation form at the end of the course.
Examinations
At the end of each course section,
you will be expected to complete an examination designed to assess your
knowledge. You may take these exams a total of three times. Your last score
will save, not the highest score. After
your third attempt, each examination will lock and not allow further access. The average from your exam scores will be
printed on your certificate. However,
this is not your final grade since your required writing assignments have not
been reviewed. Exceptionally written or
poorly written required writing assignments, or violation of the academic
integrity policy in the course syllabus, will affect your grade. As this is a self-paced computerized
instruction program, you may review course information as often as necessary.
You will not be able to exit any examinations until you have answered all
questions. If you try to exit the exam before you complete all questions, your
information will be lost. You are expected to complete the entire exam in one
sitting.
Writing
Assignments
All
assignments are reviewed and may impact your final grade. Exceptionally or poorly written
assignments, or violation of the Academic Integrity Policy (see course syllabus
for policy), will affect your grade. Fifty percent of your grade is determined
by your writing assignments, and your overall exam score determines the other
fifty percent. Refer to the Essay Grading Guidelines which were sent as
an attachment with your original course link. You should also refer to the Course Syllabus Addendum which was sent as
an attachment with your original course link, to determine if you have any
writing assignments in addition to the Critical Thinking Questions (CTQ) and
Journal Article Summations (JAS). If you
do, the Essay Grading Guidelines will
also apply.
Your writing
assignments must meet the minimum word count and are not to include the
question or your final citations as part of your word count. In other words, the question and citations
are not to be used as a means to meet the minimum word
count.
Critical
Thinking Questions
There are four CTQs that you are required
to complete. You will need to write a
minimum of 500 words (maximum 1,000) per essay. You should explain how the
information that you gained from the course will be applied and clearly convey
a strong understanding of the course content as it relates to each CTQ. To view the questions, click on REQUIRED
ESSAY and choose the CTQ that you are ready to complete; this will bring up a
screen where you may enter your essay.
Prior to course submission, you may go back at any point to edit your
essay, but you must be certain to click SAVE once you are done with your edits.
You must click
SAVE before you write another essay or move on to another part of the course.
Journal Article
Summations
You are required to write, in your own
words, a summary on a total of three peer-reviewed or scholarly journal
articles (one article per JAS), written by an author with a Ph.D., Ed.D. or
similar, on the topic outlined within each JAS section in the “Required Essays”
portion of the course (blogs, abstracts, news articles or similar are not
acceptable). Your article choice must relate specifically to the discussion
topic listed in each individual JAS. You will choose a total of three
relevant articles (one article per JAS) and write a
thorough summary of the information presented in each article (you must
write a minimum of 200 words with a 400 word maximum per JAS). Be sure to
provide the URL or the journal name, volume, date, and any other critical information
to allow the facilitator to access and review each article.
To write your summary, click on REQUIRED
ESSAYS and choose the JAS that you would like to complete. A writing program will automatically launch where you
can write your summary. When you are ready to stop, click SAVE. Prior to course
submission you may go back at any point to edit your summaries
but you must be certain to click SAVE once you are done with your edits. For
more information on the features of this assignment, please consult the HELP
menu.
You
must click SAVE before you write another summary or move on to another part of
the course.
