Cognitive Linguistics offers a theoretical framework of interest for the teaching of languages. Within this framework, language is understood as a constructor of meaning based on the sensory and motor experience of all speakers, and this point of view offers great potential in the teaching of Spanish as a foreign language.
In this course, the field of Cognitive Linguistics and its contributions to teaching in formal contexts will be explored through the grammar of the space, the linguistic system that inhabits the mind, and how our embodied language can be understood and learned.
A continuous evaluation will be carried out throughout the course, and special attention will be paid to the objectives achieved in the different modules.
In order to carry out the evaluation, the following will be taken into account:
Different types of practical activities are proposed, which involve reflection and problem solving through group discussion and the sharing of professional experiences. The activities are aimed at developing skills for teaching grammar and vocabulary from a cognitive perspective. The discussion of methodological approaches to cognitive teaching will be favored and applied, in a practical way, through provided and generated examples.
Students who have participated in this course will receive a certificate of attendance issued by the Cervantes Institute, which will be sent by this university to the interested party. For this, attendance will be mandatory and absences, regardless of the cause, may not exceed 15% of the total duration of the course.
