Tuppisuusta suupaltiksi - Suomen puhekielen kurssi (20h), Helsinki 28.7.- 5.8.2014 ma - to & ma - ti klo 16.30 -19.15 Hauska kesäkurssi, jolla keskitytään suulliseen kielitaitoon ja keskusteluun. Kurssilla harjoitellaan sujuvan keskustelun kannalta tärkeitä taitoja ja samalla kerrataan peruskurssien teemoja. Tunnit rakentuvat tutun teeman ympärille, esim. ravintola tai kauppa, johon kaikki oppitunnin harjoitukset linkittyvät. Myös opiskelijoiden omia toiveteemoja on mahdollista huomioida. Muistelemme, minkälaisia keskusteluja esim. ravintolassa käydään ja minkälaiset repliikit ovat siellä tyypillisiä. Ääntämistä harjoitellaan jonkin verran, ja puhumme puhekielen ja kirjoitetun kielen eroista. Opiskelemme myös lyhyitä ilmaisuja, joita suomalaiset käyttävät reagoidessaan keskustelussa (esim. aijaa, kiitos tiedosta!). Puhumme myös vähän työelämästä, työhaastatteluista ja suomalaisesta kulttuurista ylipäätään. Kurssilla luonnollisesti puhutaan paljon suomea ja tehdään pari- ja ryhmätöitä. Oppikirjaa ei ole, vaan kurssilla käytetään opettajan materiaaleja, pelataan pelejä ja keksitään omia dialogeja. Päätavoitteena on rohkaista opiskelijoita käyttämään jo hankittua kielitaitoa ja keskittymään nyt näihin suullisen kielitaidon alueisiin, joihin ei tavallisilla kursseilla ehditä syvällisesti paneutua.

Each year nearly 66,000 students, including more than 1,000 international students, enrol on courses organised by the summer universities. Summer universities give an opportunity for both personal and professional development. All summer universities operate in close partnership and permanent collaboration with Finnish universities, Universities of Applied Sciences and other institutions of learning. Courses are open to everyone regardless of age or prior education. However, it is essential to notice that summer universities offer short-term courses, not degree programmes. The language of instruction is mainly Finnish, but some courses are taught in English. Among our non-Finnish speaking students, the most popular courses are on Finnish language and culture . In addition to student fees, summer universities receive their funding from the state and municipalities. Summer universities take part in educational and cultural projects that aim for regional and European development. Therefore their role as educators is important. Summer universities plan their curricula on a yearly basis in cooperation with Finnish universities. Interdisciplinary programmes are offered in the fields of cultural studies, European studies, Finnish language and culture, art, dance, music, theatre, education, environmental sciences, health care and social sciences. Please note that each summer university has its own curriculum. The Association of Summer Universities in Finland is a national body founded in 1972. The aim is to take care of the interests of summer universities, provide information and collect statistics about their activities. The association also acts as a coordinating link between various interest groups and summer universities both nationally and internationally.
