Qualificació

The English language courses at the UdG’s Faculty of Tourism are based on the following system of Continuous Assessment:

WORK IN PROGRESS 40%: Students are awarded 40% of their final mark by coming to all class sessions and completing the work assigned in and out of the classroom. Daily assignments given throughout the semester correspond to 6 units from the LIFE course book plus the 6 Tourism Modules on the course Moodle. Examples of work to be done include readings, writings, oral presentations, individual and group activities, videos with follow-up activities, weekly quizzes on the 4 skills (Reading, Writing, Listening & Speaking) and class debates.

EVALUATED TESTS 60%: In addition to work done in and out of class, students are awarded 60% of their final mark by taking a series of evaluated tests:
15%: Reading Test 1 (5%), Reading Test 2 (10%)
15%: Listening Test 1 (5%), Listening Test 2 (10%)
15%: Writing Test 1 (5%), Writing Test 2 (10%)
15%: 1 Oral Test (4.5%) 1 Oral Presentation (3%), 1 Oral Exam (7.5%)

In this way, each of the 4 skills have a total weight of 15%, with all 4 parts totalling 60% of the final mark.

Students must pass each of the 4 skills with a minimum mark of 5/10.

In the event a student fails one or more skills, after averaging, the highest possible mark given will be a 4/10.

Continued Assessment is calculated by WORK IN PROGRESS 40% + EVALUATED TESTS 60% = 100%

Students can retake parts of the exam which they have failed at the scheduled Examen de recuperació (see the syllabus for exact times and dates).

Criteris específics de la nota «No Presentat»:
Students who have done neither Continuous Evaluation nor the single-sesssion evaluation will receive the mark "No presentat".

Avaluació única:
Students granted Avaluació Única by the Faculty of Tourism will be evaluated through a 4-part exam calculated as follows:

25% -Reading Test (2 Readings per test)
25% -Listening Test (3 Listenings per test)
25% -Writing Test (2 Writings per test)
25% -Oral Exam (4-part/9-minute individual test)

Students must pass each of the 4 skills areas with a minimum mark of 5/10. In the event a student fails one or more skills, after averaging, the highest possible mark given will be a 4/10.

Students are advised to check the Syllabus on the Moodle for the exact dates and times in which the 4-part exam will be held.Students can retake parts of the exam which they have failed at the scheduled Examen de recuperació (see the syllabus for exact times and dates).

Observacions

Per cursar aquesta assignatura l'alumne hauria haver consolidat prèviament el nivell B2.1 d'anglès. L'assistència amb regularitat (100%) és molt important donat que les classes són participatives i que el temari s’avança diàriament.

Students should have a solid B2.1 level of English to register for this course. Regular class attendance (100%) is a priority as classes involve active participation and subject matter is cumulative.
