Learning outcomes
Il corso mira a fornire agli studenti competenze linguistiche specifiche nella comprensione e produzione orale e scritta di testi di carattere medico-scientifico, con particolare attenzione alla dimensione lessicale, sintattica e retorico-pragmatica dell’inglese scientifico. L’attività didattica offre agli studenti gli strumenti linguistici per sostenere inoltre un dialogo con il paziente/utente e conoscere il panorama lessicale specifico per la letteratura scientifica. Obiettivo del corso è quello di consentire agli studenti di allenarsi ad un colloquio in un contesto professionale e a perfezionare la grammatica. Il corso si propone di preparare gli studenti ad allenare le seguenti abilità: la capacità di comprendere testi specialistici di interesse, la capacità di gestire un dialogo con un utente in un contesto professionale. Il corso si propone inoltre di esercitare le abilità linguistiche nella stesura di materiale scientifico e la compilazione di documentazione clinica in lingua inglese. Il percorso formativo mira altresì a far apprendere agli studenti gli standard della ricerca EBP per analizzare i resti, porsi un quesito di ricerca e presentarne risultati e rilevanza. Durante le lezioni frontali sono previste analisi di testi scientifici in lingua inglese, indica-zioni sugli strumenti di ricerca ed esercitazioni pratiche per il consolidamento della terminolo-gia.
