Cíle předmětu
This is a blended-learning course. The class meets once a week for two hours to undertake language learning activities as set out in the course book and additional activities. Homework is checked, and speaking and listening activities are performed. The distance learning component is mediated through Moodle and further language learning activities are engaged in. These include working through online drills and exercises, collaborative writing tasks, language discovery tasks in particular via corpus analysis, e-seminars in the form of forum discussions and the use of online dictionaries. The aim is to achieve Level C1 according to the European Framework. The criteria are as follows: Can understand a wide range of demanding, longer texts, and recognize implicit meaning. Can express him/herself fluently and spontaneously without much obvious searching for expressions. Can use language flexibly and effectively for social, academic and professional purposes. Can produce clear, well-structured, detailed text on complex subjects, showing controlled use of organisational patterns, connectors and cohesive devices.
