Sa eipeasóid seo, labhraíonn Emma Goode, Ceann Tionscadal MicroCreds Ollscoil na Gaillimhe, le Tomas Ó Maolalaidh ó Acadamh na hOllscolaiochta Gaeilge. Is é aidhm an mhodúil seo go mbeadh tuiscint ag an mac léinn ar an bpleanáil teanga, mar choincheap, agus ar an bpróiseas a bhaineann léi mar chleachtas agus mar ghníomh feidhmeach. Déanfar scagadh ar na réimsí éagsúla den phleanáil teanga – an phleanáil chorpais, an phleanáil stádais agus an phleanáil sealbhaithe – agus déanfar iniúchadh ar an gcaidreamh atá idir na réimsí sin agus próiseas na pleanála teanga féin. Chuige sin, breathnófar ar stair agus ar fhorás na pleanála teanga in Éirinn ó bhunú an tSaorstáit anuas go dtí na 1990idí.

Sa eipeasóid seo, labhraíonn Emma Goode, Ceann Tionscadal MicroCreds Ollscoil na Gaillimhe, le Dr Hugh Rowland ó Acadamh na hOllscolaiochta Gaeilge. Sa mhodúl seo déanfar na mic léinn a chumasú i rialacha gramadaí na Gaeilge, i gcomhréir agus i ndeilbhíocht na teanga, agus i gceartúsáid na teanga. Déanfar anailís ar ghnéithe de chóras gramadaí agus de chomhréir na Gaeilge, agus déanfar dianchleachtadh ar mhíreanna gramadaí ionas go mbainfear ardchruinneas amach. Déanfar an cruinneas sa Ghaeilge a threisiú tuilleadh trí mheán an aistriúcháin agus na scríbhneoireachta. Déanfar cleachtaí ar bhonn rialta a rachaidh chun tairbhe do chumas scríofa na mac léinn.
