How will I learn?

Methodology

This Unidad de Aprendizaje Integrada (UAI) de “Lengua extranjera 2” follows the learning strategy of studying by creating a Project that integrates the UAI’s specific generic and disciplinary competences; with this project you can see how far you developed the competences utilized in this course.

This Learning strategy based in projects aims to answer the learning needs in a practical way; involving your real life at the same time you incorporate new concepts that will help you with your everyday activities and supporting your scientific and technological knowledge.

The project is formed by using the competences we pretend to develop during the course, as they are its foundation and contain the defined purposes and the contents we will study as part of those competences.

The Project is integrated by several developments and a Project that includes all you learned during the UAI. Each advance forms a new part of the project, and each learning activity helps you successfully build your project as you learn in a real and practical environment, helping you relate better to what you learn; all of this adds up to the evaluation of the competences, this means both you and the teacher will be able to identify how much of the competences you mastered.

The evaluations of each step of the project and the final inclusive project are supported by several instruments you can use to understand the requirements for an efficient completion.
