About the Project

Dear students,

From the very outset, let's talk about your projects for this semester. I hope  it can help you learn the language, English, by yourself to complement with the work done in class and Cambridge.

This project is base on a Didactic Technique called Project Based learning, this didactic technique, based on cases, debate, problem-based learning (Barrows, 1996), and so on, is used in many universities of the world in many heterogeneous disciplines due to advantages it offers for student learning.

COLLABORATIVE ACTIVITY PLANNING FORMAT FOR THE PROJECT OF THE ENGLISH COURSE Inglés Profesional I_2016 II Inglés IV

The topics for your speech comes from the main titles of your book with additional research from internet.

Get into internet and read all the information and watch videos related to your topic. Create your own blog and paste all the resources you have investigated. The videos will help you to improve your listening and be in contact with real English.

Ø The timing of your oral presentation will vary according to your teacher’s opinion.

Ø Everything will be evaluated only if you have the speech, otherwise you will not have any grades. Remember that the blog is kind of a PPT. (With the blog your teacher will know what you have been researching, how many videos you have been watching and so on.
