Learning objectives

By the end of the course students: – will be familiar with essential concepts of morphology and terminology, especially in the Spanish-speaking context; – will be familiar with the pragmatic and stylistic resources that feature in specialised texts relating to tourism, economics and advertising; – will have learnt textual conventions and strategies and will be able to apply them to the specified fields. Expected Spanish proficiency level is C1 according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Language.

Prerequisites and basic notions

To take the exam, a C1 level of language proficiency or higher is required, which corresponds to 3 of the 9 credits for the course. Assessment of language proficiency is based on certifications issued by the CLA (University Language Center) or the Instituto Cervantes (subject to prior CLA equivalence, as listed in the appropriate lists) and is a prerequisite for the exam with the Spanish Language 3 teacher. As indicated in the "Regulatory Guide for Students of the Foreign Languages and Literatures Area," the C1 language certification is valid for five years from the date of achievement. Students must have passed and registered the preparatory exams required by the "Regulatory Guide for Students of the Foreign Languages and Literatures Area," namely, Spanish Language and Spanish Literature from the second year. IMPORTANT: Erasmus students MUST contact the teacher before the start of lessons for clarifications and for the possible integration of 3 CFU.

Program

The course will provide an introduction to the fundamentals of morphology, lexicology, and terminology, applying them to the analysis of commercial and tourism texts. Current trends in neology and lexical innovation in the Spanish language will be examined, and aspects of lexical creativity in tourism and economic texts will be analyzed. The course materials are an integral part of the exam syllabus for attending students; they will be made available on the course's Moodle platform. Students who do not regularly attend class will be provided with the syllabus prepared using the non-attending reading list and the non-attending materials available on Moodle. REQUIRED READINGS AND TEACHING MATERIALS FOR THE EXAM - ATTENDING STUDENTS (min. 75% attendance): Materials used in class; Teaching materials for attending students uploaded to Moodle; Mandatory reading list for attending students on Leganto. - NON-ATTENDING STUDENTS: Teaching materials for non-attending students are uploaded to Moodle; Mandatory reading list for non-attending students is available on Leganto.

Didactic methods

Classes will be face-to-face and interactive, supported by PowerPoint presentations and audiovisual materials. Practical activities based on the analysis of commercial and tourism texts and corpora will also be offered. A separate program is available for attending students (minimum attendance 75%) and for non-attending students. Teaching support: Supplementary teaching materials will be uploaded to the course's Moodle platform. The instructor is also available during office hours, which can also be arranged via ZOOM if necessary. Finally, potential students are advised that specific support and tutoring for inclusion and accessibility is available, particularly for the French, English, Russian, Spanish, and German Language and Literature courses. These activities will be advertised on the Department's website.

Learning assessment procedures

The 75-minute exam will be administered in Spanish, and students will be required to answer questions in that language. It will consist of multiple-choice, short-answer, and open-ended questions. Some questions will require metalinguistic reflection and the ability to identify and provide examples of phenomena covered in the course. The test will be graded based on the chosen course (attending/non-attending). The use of dictionaries or electronic devices is not permitted during the exam.

Students with disabilities or specific learning disorders (SLD), who intend to request the adaptation of the exam, must follow the instructions given HERE

Evaluation criteria
