Embodied Learning in the English Classroom: Enhancing Language Acquisition through Gesture and Movement (Lehr-Lern-Labor)
Focusing on embodied learning, this seminar examines how physical movement, sensory experience, and gesture can be used to support ELT and foster deeper student engagement. As with other “Lehr-Lern-Labor (LLL)” courses, this seminar is an opportunity to explore simplified teaching and learning situations through actual classroom practice. This takes place during two sessions with secondary level pupils in the ELT Embodied Learning Lab. Participants prepare learning materials for the first Student Lab session. Subsequently, building on results and observation from session one, these teaching materials are further developed and taught a second time. Course meetings are conducted in English (CEF: C1/C2).
There is no module examination, however, students are expected to attend class regularly and to participate actively, which includes reading assigned texts to prepare for each session, and handing in a number of small writing assignments during the course of the semester.
Assigned texts will be announced at the beginning of the term.
Course structure: lectures, discussions, group/partner work, hands-on activities. close
