Course description
This course equips the pre-service English teachers with an
understanding between and among the four types of grammar:
functional, descriptive, prescriptive and pedagogic. Aside from the
emphasis on how teaching and assessment vary considering the
four types, the course also provides an avenue to carry out analysis
on the role of grammar in achieving communicative
competence. Specifically, it allows them to demonstrate linguistic
proficiency as an important factor in promoting their students’
literacy skills. As a manifestation of this competency, they are
required to apply teaching strategies that are responsive to their
students’ linguistic backgrounds considering the principles of
formative and summative assessments.
At the end of the course,
the learners are expected

C. conduct a teaching
A. design a compendium of B. craft a learning plan that

innovative teaching
and summative, which are students by incorporating their
approaches and tasks that are
consistent with the selected principled understanding of
responsive to the students’
competencies; assessment of grammar; and
linguistic needs.
