 This short presentation introduces you to the content of the VLC class History of English at Northern Caribbean University. In particular, we will look at the content of the class and its syllabus, providing overview of the educational strategies that are applied and will finally list the requirements students have to fulfill to get the class credits. This class covers the history of the English language from its remote Indo-European origin and even before, up to the present day. It provides substantial information about the English language at different periods and introduces the main theoretical and technical concepts of historical linguistics, taking into account recent work in historical and general linguistics. Special emphasis will be put on practical aspects, such as reading and analysis of texts taken from different periods of English. In traditional teaching, content delivery and content acquisition are realized in class, where several dozens of students have to gather at the same time to be entertained by their teacher. In the second phase, students practice on their own, on the basis of additional exercise material, homework tasks, and so on and so forth. We will flip or invert these two activities and apply the inverted classroom model. Content acquisition is now self-guided, takes place first and is done online. The additional in-class phase is dedicated to practicing, rehearsing, discussion, or analysis. This means prior to each in-class meeting, students must have worked through the online content of the respective unit. Classical teaching is now just one method among many, for example, if the online content needs to be working or if additional information has to be provided. Now, the central teaching method is that of a cooperative interaction between instructor and students. Finally, you want to know what you have to do in order to get the class credits. First of all, active participation is required. Second, it's the submission of three ungraded worksheets. Third, the submission of four graded worksheets. And the last requirement is the exam which you have to pass. Now, see you on the VLC or in class.
