Morphology (BS 3)

Dear students of BS English, Semester 3, welcome to the online course of Morphology! 

Your first half of Semester 3 was completed during the months of October-December 2019 with the coverage of Phonology. In the second half of the ongoing semester - commencing from June 16, 2020 - you will complete the course titled Morphology (commonly known as the study of the internal structure and formation of words).

One lesson will be covered each week. The ongoing half of the semester will last for 6 weeks (see course outline for details). The lessons of this course will develop from simple to complex. Accordingly, the formative and summative assessments will also follow the revised Bloom’s Taxonomy. The initial 2 lessons of this course will focus on lower order cognitive skills (i.e., remember, understand, and apply). The rest of the lessons will gradually help you develop and demonstrate higher order thinking skills (i.e., analyze, evaluate, and create) in addition to lower order thinking skills. To learn about Bloom’s Taxonomy, watch the video by clicking the link titled "Bloom's Taxonomy (Video)" on this page.

Furthermore, by completing this course with active participation, you will also be able to acquire and practice 21^st century learning skills (also known as 4 Cs - critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and creativity) embedded within the course coverage. To learn about 21^st learning skills, what the video by clicking the link titled "21st Century Learning Skills (Video)" on this page.

This online course has been redesigned considering the limited time available and the nature of online and student-centered learning with interactivity, rather than learning passively or feeling alone, during the journey of the course. While being an active online learner, you will experience and participate in three types of interactivity during the course: student-content interactivity (through course materials), student-student interactivity (through formal and informal discussion groups), and student-teacher interactivity (through interactive live sessions, group discussions, and individual chat/call on specific times each week when scheduled).
