Description

Cúrsa ina ndéantar scileanna teanga na mac léinn (éisteacht, labhairt, léamh agus scríobh) a chleachtadh agus a fhorbairt trí thascanna ranga, obair neamhspleách agus obair bhaile rialta. Baintear leas as ábhar dílis sna ranganna, bunaithe ar réimse leathan topaicí mar shampla: ‘Ag Teacht go dtí an Coláiste’ ‘Aiste a scríobh’, agus ‘Cúrsaí Gaeltachta’. Cuirtear le heolas na mac léinn ar na téarmaí gramadaí, ar fhoghraíocht na Gaeilge, ar na canúintí, agus déantar foclóir na mac léinn a shaibhriú trí chleachtaí cluastuisceana, léamhthuisceana agus trí chleachtaí meicniúla gramadaí. Déantar iniúchadh ar na gnéithe seo a leanas den ghramadach go háirithe: na tuisil, an chopail, aimsirí na mbriathra. Baintear úsáid as míreanna éisteachta agus físe le cur le scileanna éisteachta agus le scileanna tuisceana na mac léinn, agus cuirtear lena gcuid eolais ar an gcultúr a bhaineann leis an teanga.

Learning Outcomes

1. feasacht bhunúsach a léiriú faoi struchtúr na teanga go ginearálta agus faoin ngaol atá ag patrúin éagsúla lena chéile.
2. tuiscint a léiriú ar na hearráidí is coitianta a dhéanann siad sa chaint agus sa scríobh agus an dóigh le straitéisí a tharraingt chucu féin chun na hearráidí sin a sheachaint.
3. tarraingt ar a dtuiscint ar bhunstruchtúir na teanga chun struchtúir chruinne a chur ar fáil go réasúnta leanúnach ina gcuid scríbhneoireachta agus ina gcuid cainte.
4. tuiscint a léiriú ar na príomhphointí i dtéacsanna scríofa caighdeánacha agus i dtéacsanna éisteachta a bhaineann le fearann an oideachais agus le topaicí an tsiollabais.
5. réimse leathan stór focal agus saibhreas cainte a léiriú i dtaca le topaicí an tsiollabais agus faoi fhormhór na dtopaicí a thiocfadh chun cinn sa chaint laethúil.
6. téacsanna soiléire le mionsonraí cruinne a chur ar fáil faoi rogha leathan ábhar bainteach le topaicí an tsiollabais, lena réimse spéise agus leis an bhfearann oideachais.
