The academic writing classes include theoretical explanations and examples, followed by group work to be carried out during the lesson and individual work as homework, compulsory to take the exam as an attending student.
The language laboratory is aimed at improving fluency and accuracy in speaking skills in order to allow students to reach a good command of linguistic and communicative competence. It is conducted in relatively small groups.
The two continuous assessment exercises are two short pieces of writing: a compare and contrast exercise based on two sources (250-300 words) and the description and comment on a graph (250-300 words). The final exam consists in writing an essay (500-600 words) on one of the topics discussed during the course based on three sources given by the teacher.
The academic writing mark corresponds to the weighted average of the continuous assessment and the exam distributed as follows: 10% for every continuous assessment writing exercise and 80% for the exam essay.
The written exam consists of three parts: a text with gaps to fill, questions on topics related to academic writing and the description of a graph (100-150 words). The mark corresponds to the weighted average of the three parts: 25% for gap filling, 25% for questions on academic writing and 50% for the description of a graph.
For public speaking, an attending student is defined as someone who (1) has attended at least 80% of lab classes and (2) is also an attending student of the academic writing course (see above). Students are evaluated based on their participation (level of engagement and listening skills) and on an oral presentation they have to prepare on a topic of their choice.
For the public speaking exam, non-attending students have to prepare a 10-minute presentation on a topic related to the book chosen (see Readings/Bibliography section) and send Dr. Ghiselli slides (including references) a week before the exam date. After the presentation, there are 10 minutes of discussion about the book. The mark corresponds to the average between the prepared presentation and the discussion about the book.
