High English Workshop for the PTM courses
Syllabus August-December 2017 Tec de Monterrey, Campus Querétaro
Thank
you for starting this great adventure in our new English course!
This course has been designed to help heroes( students) improve their different English skills to defeat Failord. We will be focusing primarily in the practical usage of writing and speaking, and secondarily on reading and listening, applying paralinguistic skills for academic texts. Thematically, the skills will be enhanced through analysis, discussion, critique and elaboration in individual and collaborative papers using different kinds of essays.
This class is gamified but it is not a game. In only looks like one.
Specific Objectives:
Encourage in heroes an active, constant participation requesting from them punctual and well-founded opinions. Cultivate linguistic and generic competences through planned activities for their application in controlled simulated scenarios. Improve the students’( Heroes’) ability to use language in a fluid
way, using complex structures when interacting with native speakers. Additionally, the heroes will be able to understand and interpret both oral situations and written texts( demanding and complex), which are commonly found in a university level context.
