| Methodologies |
| Description | |
| Introductory activities | Course presentation (aims, content, learning methods, assessment). |
| Lecture | Presentation and explanation (for each new item) of course contents, to support and complement practice with the acquisition of appropriate corresponding linguistic and meta-linguistic knowledge. |
| Problem solving, exercises in the classroom | Exercises completed in the class sessions (corrections will be explained in English, preferably by the students), to: (a) increase the student's degree of grammatical accuracy, (b) initiate training in basic description and analysis of the English language, and (c) detect and deal with any especially problematic aspects. |
| Previous study | Reviewing and revising for written tests. Complementation (with brief readings) of class lectures. |
| Assignments | Students will have to write a final report in which they assess different aspects of the subject and their own learning process. |
| Problem solving, exercises | Students will be required to read units at home and do exercises about them. They should also tell teachers about any doubts/problems they might come up against when doing so. |
| Personal attention | Reviews of papers or tests. Individual consultation of any course-related doubts or problems (in visiting hours). |

No late assignments will be accepted. No tests/exams will be taken outside scheduled dates and times, unless properly justified. In cases where results are borderline, regular attendance (above 80%) and active participation in class discussions may be taken into consideration, at the tutor's discretion. Segona Convocatòria will consist of a written exam worth 100% which will include questions and exercises on all the topics covered in the course. Students will not have to write the final report for segona convocatòria. |
