LEVEL 7 – STUDENT’S PROFILE
By the end of level 7, students will demonstrate a solid understanding
of written and oral texts related to relationships, personal, social,
economic, health, & technological development as well as history,
stories, art, travel, learning and creativity. Similarly, students be able to
analyze, evaluate and explain problems and solutions related to world
issues to propose courses of action to issues within their proximal
context. In doing so, students will discuss a variety of topics aimed at
awakening their intercultural competence and critical thinking abilities.
During the process, students will become more skilled users of
Information & Communication Technologies (ICTs) and learning
strategies which in turn will foster their ownership of their language
learning process.

What is Flipped Learning?
It is a pedagogical approach where direct instruction takes place outside the classroom, and face-to-face time is
used to develop meaningful and personalized learning activities. I work and prepare at my own pace.
What are the advantages of Flipped Learning?
I can take as much time as necessary to understand, internalize the session content, practice it, and be ready for class.
When I prepare the content myself, I remember the information more easily.
I prepare for class in the comfort of my home, with additional resources if need it; moreover, I am graded for this effort.
I already know what the class will be about, so I can anticipate and look for more information on a topic that is difficult for me
or one that I want to better prepare for or delve into.
Since I am better prepared, I can use class time to resolve doubts and improve production skills.
By being more involved in the class and using this space to practice and talk with my classmates, I can increase my language
level faster. 5

Class Tasks
LANGUAGE PURPOSE:
• They are spontaneous group activities designed to use grammar,
expressions and vocabulary elements studied in class.
• Class tasks will be explained, prepared and presented in the same
class.
• They are NOT readings activities.
• There will be TWO class tasks.
RELEVANCE:
• They promote collaborative work where all the students must help
each other and guarantee they are working as a TEAM.
• The dynamics may vary, for example, roles can be assigned at
random before the presentation as it might happen in real life.

Some aspects to keep in mind
❖ Tutoring sessions: extra class support from the Language Center teachers throughout the week.
➢ They are not mandatory, but the teacher can request a student to attend.
❖ Attendance: Absence limit: 12 hours (20% of the course).
➢ Students who register 13 hours of absences: course is graded in 0.0.
➢ Late arrivals or long periods of time out of the classroom (15 minutes) are also marked as absences.
➢ Once the student fails the class due to abscesses, they lose the right to be evaluated.
❖ Excuses: they must be validated by your faculty.
➢ Teachers at the Language Center can’t validate any excuses as they belong to a cross-curricular program (Art. 69,
Students Regulation code).
➢ Absences are regularly counted even when the student has been excused by the faculty (Art. 68, Students Regulation
code).
❖ Supletorios for exams and tests: they are done through SIGA with your Faculty.
➢ See the Evaluation system to know if you need a Supletorio or just an excuse validation.
