Teaching Suprasegmental Pronunciation Features in English through Authentic Documents
NOVÁKOVÁ, Adéla
The aim of the bachelor thesis is to enrich the existing ways of teaching suprasegmental pronunciation features in English pronunciation in secondary schools with a focus on the possibilities of using authentic materials. In the introductory section, we will introduce the nature of the suprasegmental pronunciation features, which we investigate in this thesis. Then, we will summarize basic didactic principles of teaching second language pronunciation, focusing primarily on the pronunciation of suprasegmental pronunciation features. Next, we will map the existing ways of presenting and practising suprasegmental phenomena, based on the analysis of exercises in selected English language textbooks for secondary schools aimed at practising suprasegmental phenomena. We will define terminologically the notion of authentic material and specify the types of authentic materials that can be used to teach second language pronunciation. Subsequently, we will propose a set of activities based on selected authentic materials to enrich existing types of exercises aimed at pronunciation training.
