Vitoria-Gasteiz. Deadline to sign up for the Basque instructor-training course to teach at universities or other centers of higher education abroad is October 1st. The course is organized by the Etxepare Basque institute along with the Vice-Provost of Euskara and Continuing Training at the University of the Basque Country and will take place in Vitoria-Gasteiz October 4-November 30 according to the Etxepare Basque Institute.
The training course has several objectives. On the one hand, to propose effective work strategies on the knowledge and acquisition of Basque as a foreign language. On the other, to teach the peculiarities and specificity of Basque in monolingual and/or multilingual contexts; and to deepen the sociocultural aspects and values conveyed by the Basque language. Finally, it hopes to optimize skills and abilities in the teaching-learning process of Basque for foreigners by the effective use of ICTs and TUICs.
The course is aimed at graduates and undergraduates in the humanities that meet the linguistic requirements mentioned on the form. However, if there is space available (up to a maximum of 40 people), the course will also be opened to students in the 4th level and to graduates and undergraduates in other disciplines. The course will cover different themes, all focused on language, instruction, methodology and culture.
The course is directed by Mari Jose Olaziregi Alustiza, from the Department of Linguistics and Basque Studies at the University of the Basque Country and Garbiñe Iztueta Goizueta, Director of the Promotion and Diffusion of the Basque Language at the Etxepare Basque Institute.
