The English B1+ course, identified with the code 900004, belongs to the

credits which are developed through three academic units.

The course takes place in three units: The first unit is Express polite opinions
and the topics covered are: Manage interactions. Develop active listening
skills. Ask for and give advice. The second unit is State a position and the
topics covered are: Critique and review different kind of texts. Listen to and
respond to arguments. The third unit is Relate present and future and the
topics covered are: Describe hope and plans. Talk about abstract themes.
Relate present with future.
The semaforized agenda is the schedule of the course that allows to visualize
the moments of evaluation with the respective academic activities; their
typology (individual or collaborative), opening and closing date, evaluative
weights and deadlines established for the tutor to inform the student about
the feedback. It is called “semaforized” because it emits time indicators for
the delivery of the activities through the colors.
The tasks are carried out in different moments of the learning strategy: In
the initial evaluation, the Pre-Knowledge is an individual online task. In the
midterm evaluation 5 tasks are performed: Task 2 and task 4 will be
developed collaboratively, Task 5 is performed individually and Tasks 3 and
5 are automatic online individual tasks. In the final evaluation, the national
exam is developed, which in the case of the course is a closed objective test
and must be solved individually.

The evaluation of the course is carried out in three moments: Initial
evaluation: related to the online task prior to thematic development.
Intermediate evaluation: the course units are evaluated by means of
proposed tasks. The initial and intermediate evaluation make up 75% of the
course. Final evaluation: a Closed Objective Test of the knowledge acquired
during the development of the thematic contents is performed. It is equivalent
to 25% of the course.
