4. COURSE DESCRIPTION AND TEACHING METHODOLOGY

Theoretical sessions will focus on the analysis of the texts included in each unit. Students are expected to read them previously. A variety of vocabulary, grammar and writing excercises will be done in class.

Practical sessions will be devoted to improve students' speaking and listening skills. We will listen to recordings of spoken English and will favour students' interaction in class with pair work and group activities.

Students with special educational needs should contact the Student Attention Service (Servicio de Atención y Ayudas al Estudiante) in order to receive the appropriate academic support

5. ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY

Attendance to the sessions and active participation in them is essential to meet this subject's requirements.

The exam will evaluate students' knowledge of the main grammatical and vocabulary issues discussed in class. Their reading comprehension skills will also be assessed.

Students are also required to deliver a short oral presentation on a topic of their choice that is related to one of the units studied in class.
