Details of LG229 assessment and teaching methods

In addition to the course book we will be working from a number of course booklets that you can download. The first weeks will be devoted to grammar in general and then we will briefly discuss aspects of phonology. We will also discuss basic topics in morphology. The booklets are available from the Coursework Materials Repository.

Here is a short handout on cohesion/coherence. (A slide show based on this material is available from the CMR.)
