English Language

UPDATED 20150930 08:22:05

English Language involves studying a range of authentic texts and transcripts taken from everyday sources and a variety of contexts. It considers how texts are designed for particular audiences and purposes. It also involves studying how the dimensions of power, technology, history and age can significantly influence the ways individuals, social groups and institutions communicate. The course is designed to sharpen your understanding of how language works, with detailed analysis of language use in a range of texts. You will look at how language can be used to achieve particular effects in different contexts, for different audiences and purposes. You will develop your creative and analytical skills by learning to discuss texts with increasing confidence and precision. You will also acquire knowledge of linguistic frameworks and how these are used to create meaning. You should be willing to justify your ideas during class discussions and in written essays and enjoy working both independently and in a group.
