Course objectives
The course is open to all those interested in linking cultural issues with foreign language teaching, who will be able to understand the language of instruction and decide to take a course in a foreign language other than English. Students will be introduced to several issues related to cultural issues as a necessary part of foreign language teaching.
Learning outcomes
The lecture series with the subsequent analysis of the chosen cultural problem and its relation to the teaching of CU will be a suitable complement to the field didactics of follow-up Master's programs at foreign language departments at the pedagogical and philosophical faculties and will enable students to reflect not only on the differences and richness of the language studied culture, but also on questions associated with their own cultural identity.
