Cours/TD/TP/projet/examen :Acquis d'apprentissage
The objectives of this course are for students to increase their knowledge of business English through the theme of entrepreneurship, and to apply this knowledge to the creation of a virtual start-up in teams. The course focuses on the four core language skills (reading, writing, speaking and listening) and learners will aim to master the fundamentals of academic English, using a variety of skills and contexts enabling them to apply for top international universities at the end of the first year. The course also aims to improve the student’s confidence in presenting their ideas to others.
Contenu
LG5 Global Awareness. Being open (minded) to others and to the world, and looking for positive societal impact
(GA11) Decipher expectations (issues, interests) of different partners
(GA12) Use culturally appropriate methods to speak, interact sensitively, and get messages across
(GA14) Produce efficient 'language acts' appropriate to both audience and objective (emails, reports, essays, minutes, presentations, meetings etc.)
Detailed Rubrics:
• Identify and explain claims and evidence within an argument.
• Develop a paragraph that includes a claim and evidence supporting the claim.
• Write a thesis statement that requires proof or defense and that may preview the structure of the argument.
• Describe the line of reasoning and explain whether it supports an argument’s overarching thesis.
• Recognize and explain the use of methods of development to accomplish a purpose.
• Develop a line of reasoning and commentary that explains it throughout an argument.
• Use appropriate methods of development to advance an argument.
Evaluation
All Grading will be on a scale of 0 to 20, unless otherwise stated.
The CF makes up 1/3 of the final grade for the module (UV/UE).
The CC makes up 2/3 of the final grade for the module (UV/UE). This CC grade is made up of equal parts ‘PP’ grade (Presence & Participation), and ‘CC*’ Grade (3 Selected Classroom assignments, as detailed by the teacher: 2 Written Production assignments, and 1 Presentation).
Presence Grade: Students will receive credit for attending class regularly, up to a maximum of 1/6 of their total grade. Unjustified absences will thus have a direct impact on student’s overall grade.
Participation Grade: Students will be assessed on their participation in class, according to the criteria in ‘classroom expectations’
In case of absence, it is the responsibility of the student to make up for any missed work in order to avoid such absences negatively impacting final grades.
Validating the tandem program will add 2 bonus points to a student’s CC grade of the corresponding language course.
CEFR Grade (A1-C2)
Students will be continuously assessed as to their language level relative to CEFR criteria.
There is NO DIRECT RELATION between a student’s CC*/CF/PP and their CEFR level.
Une absence au non justifiée au CF1 par le service de scolarité centrale entraîne la note 0/20.
En cas d’échec (note finale inférieure à 10) au CF1, un Contrôle Final 2 (CF2) est organisé.
A LSH, la note de CF2 ne remplace QUE la note du CF1 et, lorsque votre absence au CF1 n'est pas justifiée par la scolarité centrale de votre école, alors votre note d'UV/UE finale (CC+CF2) est plafonnée à 13/20 maximum.

Chaque travail soumis pour notation doit être créé uniquement par l'apprenant et sans l'aide de correcteurs et/ou traducteurs automatiques de langue et sans l’aide d’outils de
texte génératif, sauf indication expresse et contraire de l’enseignant. Tout travail présentant des signes caractéristiques de tels usages, non conforme au niveau de l'apprenant,
se verra attribuer une note de 0/20. La décision finale sera prise par l'enseignant et le coordinateur du cours.
Approches pédagogiques
Pedagogical materials (non-contractual):
Learners will analyse a range of supports from different media sources.
Texts: Learners will be supplied with texts from differing sources and of differing lengths. Learners will be asked to analyse, deconstruct, and/or reconstruct according to the objective at hand. Learners will be asked to produce texts conforming to the genre studied.
Learners may be asked to read aloud for practice in pronunciation. Full effort is required for pronunciation practice, so a ‘theatre’ mindset is required.
While studying texts, learners should make notes / highlight unknown words, phrases and rhetorical devices during reading to ask questions during the class
New Media: Short videos or digital media will be presented in class with associated questions / tasks based on the input. Learners should take notes on content during all presentation unless otherwise instructed.
Interactive: Any interactive material will require autonomous participation from the learner. However, the learner must signal problems and/or questions to the teacher at the earliest opportunity.
Collaborative: Group projects will be conducted regularly, and learners will generally NOT be allowed to chose their group. This is to respect diversity and group dynamics. It is the group’s responsibility to make sure that all members conduct an equal amount of work.
Peer-grading: Learners may be asked to grade each other’s work based on objective criteria, and provide feedback. Learners are encouraged to grade honestly to better help their colleagues.
Vocabulary journaling / revision: Learners should keep a vocabulary log and self-test on learned vocabulary throughout the semester.
Homework: Allows for revision of, and preparation for, content studied in class. Homework assignments are considered mandatory.
