Objectives
Students at this level have already a big linguist repertory, so the objective here is to validate the knowledge of Hispanic language and culture, attending to its diversity and deepening themes related to social and cultural actuality.
At the end of this course the student must achieve these competences in the following areas:
- Receptive activities: To understand long texts easily.
- Productive activities: To communicate fluently, being capable of self-correction. Also, to be able to write correctly about complex subjects.
- Interactive activities: In complex conversations, being able to relate self-interventions with other ones.
- Mediating activities: To reformulate a text, oral or written, in order to allow mututal comprehension between other people.
- Coherence: Students must be able to produce clear, well-structured discourse, showing an adequate use of organisational patterns, connectors and cohesion devices.
In short, all this will allow students, by the end of the course, to reach the goals defined by Level C1 (Effective Operational Proficiency) established by the
Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.
Learning outcomes and competences
The goals of the subject are formulated as a function of the communication competences that the student should attain and improve at this level. That is why each of the linguistic activities (oral and written reception, oral and written interaction and oral and written mediation) will be the subject of study in class, and related to the two areas in which the contents are divided:
1. Discursive genres and textual products and
2. Pragmatic strategies and tactics.
In this way, during class activities the students will recreate communicative situations based on the analysis of the external form and context in which the activities are produced, and the simulation of different oral transmission and written genres, given that each discursive genre gives an answer to the need to achieve a communicative need in a satisfactory way. All of this is made from a wide selection of texts extracted from different domains, especially educational and professional.
