In this course we will explore autonomous language learning (ALL) and educational MakerSpace-learning in the English primary classroom from a theoretical, research and a very practical classroom perspective. Both approaches emphasize learners taking responsibility and finding intrinsic motivation when they can take ownership of their language learning. We will visit an autonomous classroom at a Montessori school in Berlin, which will provide you with the opportunity to investigate the transition from traditional teaching to a focus on individualized learning. A reflective journal will accompany your own learning process throughout the course, documenting your learning strategies, progress, and challenges.
