Description and contextualization of the subject

INTRODUCTION

In this subject, the teaching-learning processes typical of the integrated curriculum are analyzed, for example, those typical of the CLIL model (Content and Language Integrated Learning) or the trilingual model of the Basque Government. The analysis covers the theoretical approach, experiences and bases for research.

The three axes of the subject are the integrated language curriculum based on the principles of threshold, interdependence, transfer, common underlying competence; the design of the integrated curriculum; and interculturalism and language from the perspective of the integrated curriculum.

EVALUATION IN THE ORDINARY CALL.

There are two modalities: continuous evaluation and final exam.

Students who choose continuous assessment:

• Task 1 (35%). Specific deliverables of the learning activities covered in class: e.g. short essays, summaries and exercises. For the creation of these deliverables, active, reflective and critical participation in the subject tasks is needed. They can be prepared individually or in pairs.

• Task 2 (30%) Written application work and oral presentation of this work, with the help of Power Point or similar. The work will consist of the creation of a multilingual teaching unit, a multilingual intervention program or a Center Linguistic Project.

• Task 3. Final exam (35%): individual, written reflection, in an open or essay format, with the help of materials, on issues covered in the course.



Taking as reference what is laid out in the UPV/EHU Student Assessment Regulations (see Article 8), the student has the right to renounce the continuous assessment system. People interested in this will ask the teacher for the existing template for this purpose and deliver it within the deadlines and terms established in the aforementioned regulations. If so, these will be blocks that will be taken into account and the weight that corresponds to each one.



Students who choose the final exam will have the option of being evaluated through a final test (100%), or if they choose to do so, through the following tasks:



• Task 1 (35%). Review of 3 scientific articles, agreed with the teacher.

• Task 2 (30%). Preparation of a multilingual teaching unit, a multilingual intervention program or a Center Linguistic Project (see annexes).

• Task 3 (35%) Final exam: individual, written reflection, in an open or essay format, with the help of materials, on issues covered in the course.



If the ordinary call is waived, in face-to-face or non-face-to-face mode, the teacher must be notified before week 9 of the course.



Regardless of the assessment system that the students choose (continuous or final exam) and the call they are in (ordinary or resits):

* To carry out the correction of the exam-test activities, a minimum standard is required in relation to oral and written expression (presentation, format, grammar correction and so on) correctly citing the sources of information used and maintaining a respectful attitude.

* The UPV/EHU protocol on academic ethics and prevention of dishonest or fraudulent practices in the assessment tests and in academic work will be taken as a reference for action.

* Failure to take the exam will lead to the grade of “not presented” (see article 12 of the UPV-EHU Student Assessment Regulations).

*Examination is expected to be face-to-face, but if the sanitary situation requires it, classes and exams can be carried out online using the resources of e-Gela, Blackboard Collaborate and email.

Extraordinary call: orientations and renunciation

EVALUATION. RESITS

If the student does not pass the ordinary exams, they will have to participate in the resits. The grades of the blocks passed in the ordinary exam will be saved for the resit, as long as the student does not request the teacher otherwise, in writing and before the results of the ordinary call are published.

If the resit is not passed, the marks of the passed blocks will not be saved for the following academic years.
