Hello and a warm welcome to the explainer video

2
00:00:03.289 --> 00:00:06.625
for the module ENG 11 Focus on primary level

3
00:00:06.710 --> 00:00:10.850
specific literary or cultural studies and action
research.

4
00:00:10.970 --> 00:00:15.416
This module is for primary education students
in their bachelor studies.

5
00:00:15.500 --> 00:00:20.756
This video aims to give an overview of ENG
11 final module exam organization.

6
00:00:20.840 --> 00:00:25.309
Therefore, it does not replace seminars or
lectures attendance.

7
00:00:25.430 --> 00:00:29.276
In this video we will first take a look at
the module handbook.

8
00:00:29.360 --> 00:00:32.576
Afterwards, I will talk about the seminars
and lectures,

9
00:00:32.659 --> 00:00:35.756
and in the end we will take a closer look at
the exam.

10
00:00:35.840 --> 00:00:39.200
So let's start off with a look at the module
handbook.

11
00:00:39.349 --> 00:00:42.986
Once you've completed the module, you will
get ten credit points,

12
00:00:43.069 --> 00:00:45.686
nine credit points in total for the seminars

13
00:00:45.770 --> 00:00:48.110
and one credit point for the exam.

14
00:00:48.290 --> 00:00:52.765
The ISP seminar, also known as Methodology
seminar,

15
00:00:52.849 --> 00:00:55.526
is part of the module, but not of the exam.

16
00:00:55.610 --> 00:00:58.490
That is why I will not focus on this seminar.

17
00:00:58.669 --> 00:01:02.000
So let's take a closer look at the seminars
and lectures.

18
00:01:02.000 --> 00:01:06.000
There are three essential courses. You must
either attend a literature

19
00:01:06.000 --> 00:01:08.000
or a cultural studies seminar.

20
00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:13.000
You also have to attend a seminar called Action
or Empirical Research

21
00:01:13.000 --> 00:01:16.000
in the Foreign Language Classroom.

22
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:19.000
Each of these seminars gives three credit points.

23
00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:23.000
The third essential course is the colloquium
for exam candidates.

24
00:01:23.000 --> 00:01:27.000
This course is offered 4 to 5 times and it
takes place

25
00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:29.000
at the beginning of the term.

26
00:01:29.000 --> 00:01:31.000
The first session is mandatory.

27
00:01:31.000 --> 00:01:34.000
At the end of the term, you will take your
exam.

28
00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:38.000
For the exam, you need to sign up in the

29
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:40.000
StudIP through colloquium for exam candidates
course.

30
00:01:41.000 --> 00:01:44.000
Let's move on to the setup of the final module
exam.

31
00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:48.000
The exam at the end of the module ENG 11 is
an oral exam

32
00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:50.000
and gives one credit point.

33
00:01:50.000 --> 00:01:53.000
The exam consists of three parts.

34
00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:55.000
One part deals with TEFL.

35
00:01:55.000 --> 00:02:00.000
Then you can choose a topic on literature,
cultural studies or linguistics.

36
00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:04.000
The final part is called Empirical Research
Sketch,

37
00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:06.000
also known as ERs.

38
00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:09.000
You learn how to write the ERs in the seminar

39
00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:13.000
empirical research in the classroom and in
the colloquium

40
00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:15.000
for exam candidates course.

41
00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:19.000
At the beginning of the term, you choose topics
for the three parts.

42
00:02:19.000 --> 00:02:21.000
There are some rules that you need to be aware

43
00:02:21.000 --> 00:02:22.000
of when choosing a topic.

44
00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:26.000
Those rules and further details will be shared
in the colloquium

45
00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:28.000
for exam candidates course.

46
00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:30.000
Just a small piece of advice.

47
00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:32.000
Try to choose topics you're already familiar

48
00:02:32.000 --> 00:02:34.000
with and interested in.

49
00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:38.000
When finally taking the exam, you will have
two examiners.

50
00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:41.000
They are going to ask you questions on your
topic

51
00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:45.000
and you don't have to prepare a presentation
like a PowerPoint.

52
00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:49.000
So the colloquium is not a presentation, but
a formal discussion

53
00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:54.000
on an academic topic which includes question
and answer time.

54
00:02:54.000 --> 00:02:59.000
The exam will take 25 minutes, seven minutes
for each of the three parts

55
00:02:59.000 --> 00:03:03.000
and about four minutes for the examiners to
discuss your grade.

56
00:03:03.000 --> 00:03:06.000
About two weeks before the exam takes place,

57
00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:09.000
there will be an opportunity to take part in
a mock exam

58
00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:12.000
organized in the colloquium for exam candidates
course.

59
00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:16.000
So good luck with your exam and thank you very
much for watching.
