About this ebook

Essay from the year 2012 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: A, University of Marburg (English Studies), course: Teaching English, language: English, abstract: The practical part of my diploma thesis will be dealing with the research I carried out in the time span of 3 months, with 53 subjects (students), in four different groups. The research consisted of five different parts by means of which I wanted to find out the answer to the question if music can help the learners with vocabulary acquisition, and to what extent. The first two sections describe in detail the parts of my research and the researched groups. The third section provides the results of the first questionnaire, the fourth section covers the song-lesson experiment describing the sequence of activities, the course of the lesson in the groups, evaluation and its results. At the end of this chapter a comparison of the results will be provided. PARTS OF THE RESEARCH My research consisted of a questionnaire- based on a song, and two collections of results. The very first part of the research represented the first questionnaire by means of which I needed to find out what attitude to music the students had, and mainly what kind of music they liked, what kind of music they did not like, which song was their favourite, and if they liked singing. These items of information were the most significant, and the “song-research” was based on them
