Linguistics English – Word Formation – Affixes

Description

This lesson was recorded in a university linguistics session. The trainer is preparing the learners for a linguistics exam. Since the learners are also pre-service primary and secondary school teachers;the trainer also wants to expose them to learning technologies like the IWB.

The learners revised the use of prefixes and suffixes to change a word stem. The drag and drop function in combination with an infinite cloner of the affixes encouraged the learners to swap the possibilities and led to a whole-class discussion.
