Cours/TD/TP/projet/examen :Learning objectives
ILO17 Communicate and collaborate in different contexts
(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.
Content
LG5 Global Awareness. Being open (minded) to others and to the world, and looking for positive societal impact
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: Learners 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 a learner’s overall grade.
Participation Grade: Learners will be assessed on their participation in class, according to the criteria in ‘classroom expectations’
Validating the tandem program will add 2 bonus points to a learner’s CC grade of the corresponding language course.
CEFR Grade (A1-C2)
Learners will be continuously assessed as to their language level relative to CEFR criteria.
There is NO DIRECT RELATION between a learner’s CC*/CF/PP and their CEFR level.
Une absence non justifiée au CF1 par le service de scolarité centrale entraîne la note 0/20.
CF2
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 finale de module (UV/UE) est plafonnée à 13/20 (donc CC+CF2).

Grades are subject to moderation by the course coordinator. The value of grades may increase or decrease.
Pedagogical methods
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.
