STRUCTURES OF ENGLISH
MLED 2005 | 3 Credits | UG
This course introduces the major structural elements of English for students intending to teach English as a Second Language. Students engage in systematic description and discussion of the phonetic, morphological, syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic systems of English. We investigate issues of dialect variation, prescriptive rules, and literacy development. Practical applications include analysis of ELLs’ writing and speech samples.
