“The Acquisition of Phonology in the EFL Classroom”
Phonology plays an essential role in the establishment of linguistic identities and in the construction of stereotypes (such as “native”, “non native” and “foreign accent”, just to name a few). This has been very well documented in sociolinguistics, both for mother tongue and foreign languages. However, the acquisition of phonology has not always received enough attention in EFL theory and practice. This course aims at analyzing how EFL students acquire the phonology of English and to what extent it differs from the way the language is acquired by native communities. After a concise revision of the specialized literature, the course will look into the diverse methodologies that have been implemented in the teaching of phonology. Both theoretical and practical issues will be raised, with special emphasis on TEFL in Uruguay. Throughout the course participants will have the opportunity to analyze the adequacy of exercises and materials. All sessions will consist of a theoretical presentation and an “application module”, in which participants will apply theoretical concepts. Description of the course.
