OTHER WAYS:
In case of absence of the teacher, the tasks and contents may be taught virtually through the remote campus and moovi, or in the virtual office 1354.
ASSESSMENT:
THE USE OF AUTOMATIC TRANSLATORS TO MAKE THE TASKS OR WORKS IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS RULE WILL RESULT IN THE FAILURE OF THE SUBJECT FOR THE WHOLE ACADEMIC YEAR.
In both face-to-face and virtual classes, the recording of any member of the subject is strictly forbidden except with explicit permission.
Global assessment:
Since the subject has two distinct parts, the end term evaluation will have one part focused on didactics and the other on language. The evaluation in the first call will be continuous. Therefore the completion of all compulsory tasks on the proposed dates is essential to pass the subject.
All students who are not eligible for continuous assessment have the right to be assessed by means of an exam consisting of a written test with four tasks (70) and an oral test (30). The oral test will last 10 minutes and will consist of a conversation in English on points of didactic interest from the recommended stories and film. The date for the written exam will be the official date for the exams as stated on the faculty website in the academic organisation section (fcced.webs.uvigo.es).
In a confined state or through the remote campus, the exam will consist of 4 oral tests in English: 3 tasks and a talk on the compulsory stories and film.
Students who are unable to attend class and who wish to take advantage of continuous assessment must complete the compulsory assignments and presentations on the established dates. If, once the student has taken the continuous assessment, he/she is unable to fulfil ALL the requirements, he/she will be graded as a no-show in the first exam session. Attendance at the presentations is compulsory as students will have to evaluate the work of their classmates.
During the four-month period, students must read the 3 of the 4 compulsory reading stories and watch the film recommended in the bibliography.
Any extraordinary situation should be communicated to the teacher for being taken into consideration.
If students are unable to meet the requirements of continuous assessment or if they do not obtain the minimum score necessary to pass the subject in the first call, they must take the second call in June.
All the tasks specified above are compulsory for the continuous assessment: written work (25) and its presentation and dramatisation (ExPOSITION 1 25 points), exposition 2, advert (15 points), exposition 3, karaoke (20 points), oral test (20 points).
SECOND CALL:
It will consist of an exam composed of two tests in English: a four-tasks written test related to the contents of the programme. It will include questions on a theoretical level and practical assumptions; once the written test has been passed, students should take an oral test (70+30), in which they will have to talk for 10 minutes about didactic aspects of the compulsory stories and film included in the bibliography.
In the case of having to take the tests virtually through the remote campus, the exam of the second call will consist of 4 activities to be developed orally: 3 oral performances and a talk about the books and the film. 25 points for each part.
The date of the written exam will be the official date set by the Faculty in June, which can be found on the centre's website in the academic organisation section (feduc.webs.uvigo.es). The dates of the oral exams will be agreed according to the timetable availability of the Faculty and of the students who have passed the written exam.
