Miért nehéz a szövegelemzést tanulni és tanítani?

Abstract

This study investigates the seminar papers of a university course and presents typical problems and challenges that teacher trainees face during text analysis. The main hypothesis is that difficulties in text analysis primarily arise from the inadequate application of the approach and methods of the traditional grammatical analysis which is different from text analysis. The study discusses in short the differences between classical grammatical analysis and text analysis. After that via holistic reading, analytical operations, and the synthesizing analytical phase, it provides an overview of problematic statements, theoretical and methodological mistakes of the seminar papers. An important conclusion of the overview is that it is not text linguistic knowledge that needs to be expanded for the purpose of teaching text analysis more efficiently. Instead, a text-centred first language pedagogical framework should be developed, enforcing the lessons of text analysis.
