1.1
The Perfect tenses.
(voltooide tijden)
Voltooide tijden hebben een voltooid deelwoord in
het gezegde.
Er zijn
twee voltooide tijden in het Engels:
a)
present perfect (voltooid tegenwoordige tijd) ; hebben we al gehad
b) past
perfect (voltooid verleden tijd); nieuw!
Wat valt
je op aan het verschil in de naamgeving in het Nederlands en in het Engels?
Voorbeelden,
gebruik en vorm van beide tijden:
|
Present
Prefect
|
Past
Perfect
|
Voorbeelden

Assignment 1.2
Your
lecturer is going to hand out a copy of a brochure called "Going to school in the Netherlands".
Before
reading the brochure, let's do a little brainstorming as a warming up exercise
a) It's
an association game.
"What
do you immediately think of when you hear the title of the brochure?" All
first thoughts are of course correct!
Write keywords
(in English) on the blackboard. You may react to keywords written down by
someone else.
b)
Discuss and explain the keywords in English.
c)
What do we think the contents (inhoudsopgave) will be? Again in keywords.
Your
lecturer has handed out a copy of "Going to school in the Netherlands".
Read the
first (text) page (not the cover) first for yourself and then together.
d)
Who do you think this brochure was written for? In other words: "What
is the target group?"(= doelgroep)/ What are the target groups?"
Assignment 1.3
a) The
guide, which starts at the bottom of page one,
is not complete. Page 2 got lost.
Now
quickly glance through (snel doorkijken) the whole brochure to complete the
guide.

assignment 1.4
With
this assignment we practice "asking questions"
a) Write
down 5 global, simple questions about the Dutch education system.
b) Ask
these questions to your neighbour. Can he/she answer them in (good) English?
c)
Any difficulties in formulating the (English) questions or answers?
1.5
Let's have a group's discussion about the following statements (= beweringen).
The
Dutch educational system
..
1) is
not flexible enough
2) makes
the gap (= gat) between "lower class" and "middle class"
pupils (= leerlingen)/ students only bigger.
3)
should spend more time on "learning to learn" than on actual knowledge.
4)
should be completely financed by the government.
5)
should be reorganised in such a way that pupils from 12 ± 20 go to one
school/college where they can learn whatever they want (like the English "Comprehensive
School" = "midden-school" concept).
