Prerequisites and performance requirements Successful performance in this course builds on prior knowledge acquired through the courses, such as “Fundamentals of linguistics, philological and pedagogical terminology”; parts 1-2 of the integrated discipline “Modern Ukrainian language”. Students are also expected to know the major concepts and terminology of derivation; particularities of the derivational system and its structure; types of word-building meanings of derivatives; possess the skills of phonetic, phonemic, and semantic analysis of a word; be able to analyze the concepts of the studies of morphemes and morphs and derivation; build derivational networks, characterize typical and concrete derivational paradigms.

Course Description: The course aims to build students’ knowledge about the fundamentals of the studies of morphemes, morphs, and derivation and develop skills to apply the acquired knowledge in the morphemic and derivational analysis of a word. The course is divided into two content modules. Module 1 focuses on morpheme/morph as the basic units of the morphemic structure of a word, and types of morphemes. Module 2 examines derivation (derivational structure of a word; derivational type as the basis of the derivational system of a language; basic concepts of derivation; types of derivation). The course ends with an exam.

Classroom activities and teaching techniques The major activities that engage students and provide evidence to assess their performance are: answering at practical sessions and participating in whole-class questioning and module test papers. For the performance in these activities, a student can score max. 60 and min. 36 points. A detailed description of activities and formative assessment is presented in the course curriculum presented on the official website of the Educational and Scientific Institute of Philology.

Assessment A student’s final grade is based on a 100-point grading system. It is made up of the scores for the coursework during a term (max. 60, min. 36 points) and the scores earned during the exam (max. 40, min. 24 points). The formative assessment considers answers at practical sessions and participation in whole-class questioning (25 points) as well as module test papers (35 points). The summative assessment is a written exam consisting of four tasks. Two of them are open-ended tests covering the theoretical material of Module one (10%) and Module 2 (10%); each correct answer weighs 10 points. The two practical assignments envisage morphemic analysis of a word (10%) and derivational analysis of a word (10%), each correct answer weighs 10 points. A detailed description of the assessment criteria is given in the course curriculum posted on the website of the Educational and Scientific Institute of Philology.
