Learning unit contents

This course introduces students to the study and synthesis of accessible scientific texts in the field of Dutch language teaching. It focuses on research on multilingual education and Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL), as well as studies addressing the teaching of Dutch grammar, vocabulary, and reading to non-native speakers. The aim is to develop students' ability to understand, analyse, and apply the content and findings of these studies in concrete teaching contexts.

Learning outcomes of the learning unit

Targeted learning outcomes

By the end of the course, students should be able to:

  • Understand the assigned didactic texts;
  • Identify the scholarly aspects of the assigned didactic texts;
  • Meaningfully connect the didactic content of the various texts;
  • Reflect on how to apply the didactic knowledge from the texts in practice;
  • Support their own ideas with arguments from the texts.

These outcomes are integral to developing skills for organizing and overseeing learning in an evolving context, encompassing mastery of subject content, its epistemological foundations, scientific and technological advancements, as well as didactics and teaching methodologies.
