Didactic methods
Lectures, instructional videos to support the study of the monographic material and the student’s study of academic vocabulary. Lectures provide students with the necessary tools to analyse and discuss oral and written texts concerning the main areas of English for medical purposes and academic English, as well as ones that are fundamentals for the mastery of linguistic-communicative and pragmatic-linguistic skills that are required to understand and produce texts in English at a B2 level.
Learning assessment procedures
Students' abilities assessment will be measured through a written exam aimed at verifying the knowledge of all the didactic module and precisely the reading comprehension and critical analysis of a scientific article.
Evaluation criteria
The final examination consists of a written test. This test may also be administered electronically, by means of a computerised test.
The written exam aims at assessing students’ written comprehension/production (B2 level) through cloze tests and true/false, multiple choice and close ended questions and/or written compositions.
Criteria for the composition of the final grade
The final evaluation is based on the efficiency of the implemented methods, the completion and accuracy of the answers, and the clarity of the presentation of contents.
