S1-IIIA-IIIE-Introduction to Sociolinguistics (+Discourse)-Prof.Padmadewi

This course is designed to introduce students to sociolinguistics and discourse analysis. The course aims to provide students with a variety of topics for discussion and projects that will enable them to develop an understanding of the language and society, as well as the ability to analyze discourses in context. Students will receive orientations to sociolinguistics and spoken and written discourse, and will be tasked with reviewing sociolinguistic issues and phenomena and analyzing discourses using pertinent theories. The activities will incorporate both problem-based and case-based learning. Students will present on various sociolinguistic phenomena in groups or individually. As a final project, students will be required to write a report summarizing the results of their discourse analysis.
