Information

ÄSAD21 är den första kursen på sva inom ämneslärarutbildningen. Kursen består av tre delkurser:

1. Svenska som andraspråk: Introduktionskurs (13,5 hp)
I denna delkurs ges de studerande en kontext för skolämnet svenska som andraspråk och får samtidigt verktyg för att utveckla sin skrivkompetens.
Ämnet svenska som andraspråk kontextualiseras med utgångspunkt i det mångkulturella och flerspråkiga samhället. Historiska såväl som internationella perspektiv på migration och språkpolitiska frågor diskuteras i relation till situationen i Sverige och den svenska skolan. Bland annat studeras språklagen med utgångspunkt i skolans värld och vilken betydelse den har för dagens lärare. Grundläggande begrepp i såväl den samhälleliga som den vetenskapliga mångkulturella diskursen introduceras och problematiseras. Historiken och problematiken kring ämnena svenska som andraspråk och modersmål tas upp, bland annat i förhållande till attityder i samhället.
Som en central del av kursen, och parallellt med introduktionen till skolämnet sva, ges färdighetsundervisning med fokus på studenternas skrivkompetens, särskilt informerande och argumenterande texter. Olika perspektiv på textkvalitet diskuteras – som stil, korrekthet och funktion – och kopplas till skriftlig och muntlig respons. Olika former för kamratrespons och självreflektion ingår som moment på kursen.

2. Svenska språket i ett typologiskt perspektiv (9 hp)
Delkursen ger kunskaper om svenskans struktur (morfologi, syntax, semantik och fonologi) ur ett jämförande typologiskt perspektiv som även syftar till att ge en beredskap i mötet med elevers förstaspråk. fokus läggs på de delar av svenskans regelsystem som utgör särskilda svårigheter för andraspråkstalare. Kunskaperna sätts in i ett didaktiskt sammanhang genom olika problematiseringar och tillämpningar för undervisningssammanhang.

3. Språksociologi och flerspråkighet (7,5 hp)
I delkursen behandlas olika språksociologiska frågor, framför allt språklig variation och flerspråkighet. Fokus ligger på den svenska kontexten. Språkets roll som etnisk och social markör diskuteras, liksom attityder till olika språk och varieteter. I delkursen betonas vikten av att lärare har goda kunskaper om den enskilda individens kulturella och språkliga bagage, vad som händer i mötet mellan olika kulturer samt om förekomsten av mångkultur och flerspråkighet i klassrummet.


Under rubriken ”Delkurser” nedan listas de olika examinationsmodulerna som hör ihop med respektive delkurs.

Note!

This course is not open as a freestanding course next semester. It can be open for application within a programme or for students in an exchange programme. Please ask your academic advisor for information.

How to apply

Lund University uses a national application system run by University Admissions in Sweden. It is only possible to apply during the application periods: October–January for autumn semester and June–August for spring semester.

Extended application deadline

Sometimes the application deadline is extended for a specific programme or course. In these cases you will find the message "open for late application" by the programme/course information on universityadmissions.se. You apply with the usual application steps. As long as this message is showing, it is possible to apply, but late applications are processed in order of date, so it is still important to apply as soon as possible. Please note that if the programme/course does not have an extended deadline, it is not possible to apply late.

First or Second Admission Round?

All international students are encouraged to apply to the First admission round. This round takes place many months before the start of a semester and gives students the time they need to pay their tuition fees, apply for and receive their residence permit (if required), find housing, etc.

The Second admission round is an alternative for students from EU/EEA countries as they do not need a residence permit. Non-EU/EEA students will most likely not have enough time to obtain their permit before the start of the semester. However, even EU/EEA students are advised to apply during the First admission round, as some programmes can be applied for only in the January round. Also, this provides applicants with an admission decision much earlier, which is helpful in making decisions about their studies.

Tuition Fees
