Teaching of Grammar (Structure of English)

The course is a principled approach to the teaching of English grammar using both the descriptivist and the prescriptivist points of view in describing and explaining linguistics phenomena, including the changes happening in the English language in the 20^th century. Students are expected to analyze the grammatical structures of texts and to explore research-based theories, approaches, methods, and strategies and utilize them in the teaching of grammar. Hence, they will design grammar lessons and conduct demonstration teaching of grammar lessons assigned to them.
