College of Education EL 100: Introduction to Linguistics 1st Semester of A.Y. 2020-2021
Course Description Credit Units: 3
This course provides an overview of linguistics as a discipline, its development,
levels of structure, and its significance to English language teaching. (EK1, ES1).
This course is specifically designed to orient students to the nature of linguistic
inquiry, description and analysis. Appropriate focus is given on linguistics as a science and a specialization that is legitimately technically rich and whole on its own. This course therefore does not treat linguistics as a mere pedagogical tool, nor simply as a subject attendant to the learning of other fields of interest, such as education or literature. It introduces the sub-disciplines of linguistics, language universals, social and biological triggers in language use, a range of synchronic and diachronic methods of analysis, and relevant and relatively up-to-date theories and structural models. The course further develops in students a technical mastery of the accepted rule-writing conventions, as well as advanced critical and logical thinking and problem-solving skills necessary for linguistic analysis, with mostly the students themselves doing the investigation into language phenomena, guided by actual or artificial linguistic data.
Course Outcomes A. The students are able to comprehend the key linguistic concept and principles. B. The students are able to demonstrate mastery of the methods and tolls used in linguistic analysis. C. The students are able to understand both linguistic universals and language – specific differences. D. The students are able to recognize theoretical impetus for linguistic work.
