    The document provides guidance for a learning activity on using English in professional contexts for students in the Radiotherapy Technology program. The activity aims to have students communicate in simple tasks requiring basic information exchange about electrocardiograms (ECGs). Students are asked individually to define an ECG, list its basic steps, and explain what medical information it can provide about a patient's symptoms in their own words. The activity allows students to practice using their English language skills combined with their professional radiotherapy knowledge.

    2. PRESENTACIÓN
    The use of English in any professional context is a key factor in professional
    development. Therefore students of different areas need to approach the use of an L2
    from their professional practices and in simulated contexts as well. This is an
    opportunity for students to use their knowledge of the L2 in combination with their
    knowledge of their professional area.
