Set in a general way the strategies to be implemented: a) In the training process, taking into account the course nature and its purpose, b) For automous work hours.
(For research masters and doctorates, list the strategies that will be implemented for the development of research skills)
* Collaborative learning: The objective of this strategy is to carry out different forums in which the students participate and state their opinions about the tasks studied or assigned in class to collaboratively angage in the develpment of the topics. The result of each forum will be ev
etc, depending on the activity. In addition, various activities, workshops and exercises are carried out in classes in order to promote understanding, discussion and feedback. The activities will be carried out in accordance with the provisions of the general and curriculum committee.
• Project based learning: In this strategy the student must develop a series of tasks per module in accordance with the topics studied during each term in order to carry out a final project at the end of the semester. The completion of this task or activity proposed for the project is b
it will be conducted by the teacher in the assigned academic spaces. The purpose of this activity is that the students formulate whether individually or in a group, a simple project following three specific stages per module: 1) write about the impact of the professional development o
students' area of knowledge and academic field, finally 3) Record a video in which the information presented in module 1 and 2 might be avalilable for all the students. For this project, the student must carry out a research process and find out simple information, leading to a final p

this strategy will be uploaded to the social networking sites of the Language Institute in accordance with the guidelines and instructions given by the general and curriculum committee.
• Simulations: Using this strategy the teachers adapt the different topics taught in class so that the students experience in a simulated context a direct and real contact with the language, establishing connections between what was learnt with what they are intended to perform. Th
imaginary situations according to the teacher's instruction.
• Participatory activities: The objective is for the student to actively participate in each class session or any other activities outside the classroom, promoting production skills and meaningful learning. The development of this strategy is evidenced in the cultural activity, class session
activity in which the students participate: e.g. Club: video or written report, and International week: workshop according to the level, classes: ppt, inphographic, etc. The topic suggested for the cultural activity in English level 5 is: "Colombian and World Wide History". The process t
