3. Classroom dynamics. Groupings. Discipline problems and solutions. Classrooms with different levels.

5. Resources and activities for language teaching:

5.1. Apps for language teaching. Analysis and evaluation

5.2. Traditional techniques: story-telling, learner-based teaching, dictation, songs role-plays, debates and discussions, drama and humanistic activities.

5.3. Teaching materials: DVD, computer and Web-based materials, graded readers, audiovisual materials.

Several tasks and presentations will be carried out, both individual and in group. First, prospective teachers will act out as learners, experimenting the different activities, techniques, materials and classroom dynamics that can be done in the classroom.

Secondly, several textbook analysis will be done, to find out if they follow official regulations established in the Common European Framework for Languages.

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

Three tools will be taken into consideration:

1. Individual textbook analysis through an individual written work

2. Two oral presentations, one individual and another one in groups, in which some technique or material will be developed both theoretically and in practice

3. Attendance and participation in activities and debates, both initiated by the teacher and also by the other students.

Depending on the number of students enrolled in the subject,  teaching will take place in the classroom (from 100% to 50% attendance). In case the students' ratio is higher than classroom space allows, theory will take place by means of online presentations, whereas practical exercises, tasks and textbook analyses will be developed in the classroom.

Evaluation will be similar to the situation in which students may attend physical classes. Up to 65% of the mark will be focused on textbook analysis and selection-evaluation of online learning activities, whereas 35% of the mark will focus on group presentations.
