3. PROYECCIN METODOLGICA Y ORGANIZATIVA PARA EL DESARROLLO DE LA ASIGNATURA

( PROYECCIN DE LOS MTODOS DE ENSEANZA-APRENDIZAJE QUE SE UTILIZARN)

The Communicative Approach: communication is not just a goal of language learning, but is integral to the process.
Students need this competence so they can communicate effectively using their knowledge of the target language.
The Visual Approach: visual material is used to engage learners, stimulate language and help cross language borders.
Class activities develop learners critical thinking skills by encouraging students not only to describe images, but also to
interpret and discuss them.
Task-based Language Teaching: students should learn language by using it. They will learn by performing tasks and
through problem-solving, not by receiving information. In this way, students must recall and use language they have
learned in order to accomplish the task.
Digital Literacy: the role of technology in education cannot be limited to enhancement of language or access to
knowledge. Students also need to learn how to use technology effectively and ethically to accomplish both academic and
real-world tasks.
Extensive/Intensive Reading: students will examine the language in a text to see how it has been used. Intensive reading
is also used to develop specific reading strategies, while Extensive reading helps the student see the new language in
context several times in order to acquire it.
