Learning objectives
The course aims to provide students with specific language skills in the oral and written comprehension and production of medical-scientific texts, with a focus on the lexical, syntactic and rhetorical-pragmatic dimension of scientific English. The educational activity offers students the language tools to also support a dialogue with the patient/user and to learn about the lexical landscape specific to the scientific literature. The aim of the course is to allow students to train for an interview in a professional setting and to perfect their grammar. The course aims to prepare students to train the following skills: the ability to understand specialized texts of interest, the ability to manage a dialogue with a user in a professional context. The course also aims to exercise language skills in the writing of scientific material and the compilation of clinical documentation in English. The training course also aims to help students learn EBP research standards for analysing remains, asking a research question and presenting results and relevance. During the frontal lectures there will be analysis of scientific texts in English, indications of research tools and practical exercises for the consolidation of the terminology.
