    About the course

    Aim

    After completing the course, the student should be able to:

    • identify and describe different forms of linguistic and bodily meaning-making and be able to discuss social and cultural similarities and differences in linguistic expressions
    • discuss and critically analyze relations between the concepts of language, culture, mutual understanding, interaction and cognition
    • review and present current research in the subject area

    Content

    The course deals with the relationship between language, culture, interaction and cognition. The focus is on the linguistic and embodied expressions that cognition and thinking can take in different situations, and the relevance of these expressions to mutual understanding and interpersonal relationships on a societal level. During the course, there is an ongoing critical discussion about possible relationships between the concepts of language, culture, mutual understanding, interaction and cognition. Furthermore, the course contains current research for the course's relevant subject areas.
