Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to develop participants' skills in the composition of communicative texts, including familiarization with genres and their modifications, as well as to strengthen their ability to choose linguistic means and, more broadly, any expressive means not intuitively but consciously, while consistently taking into account the objective stylistic factors at play. The course will cover all functional styles, with special attention given the field of study devoted to the journalistic functional style. The goal here is for future journalists to become aware of the compositional and linguistic differences between news texts on the one hand and opinion, analytical, or narrative texts on the other. When producing their own texts, emphasis will be placed on strengthening their authorial skills.
Given that the course is designed to enhance students' knowledge in the field of text composition, as well as in the communicative value of expressive means on the lower levels of language and their application within texts thereby reinforcing their textual and stylistic competence it may be assumed that participants will be capable of producing texts that faithfully reflect their authorial intentions while simultaneously adhering to the constraints arising from the specific parameters of the communicative framework.

Prerequisites
|
Participants in the course are expected to possess basic knowledge of the Czech language, including relevant terminology (such as linguistics; language vs. speech; neutral vs. marked linguistic means; stylistic markedness). They should also be able to navigate linguistic levels (phonological, morphological, lexical, and syntactic), including the ability to identify marked phenomena. Furthermore, basic knowledge of stylistics (fundamental styles, modes of composition, genres) and elementary compositional skills are required. The course builds upon Introduction to Language Studies for Journalists (USJBN) and Contemporary Czech Language for Journalists (SCJBN).
