This course delves into the many phases of the study of Phonetics and Phonology of the English Language. So, the methodology needs to be based on a multimethod approach that allows the lecturer and the Master's candidates to cover the revision and the practice of the main topics and concepts of the subject.
The lessons will have a length of 90 minutes, starting at 8 am and finishing at 9:30 am and will be hosted in the Blackboard Ultra Platform.
The theory along with the practice will be included in the different units and lessons. That way, acquirers will have the opportunity to give sense to the content. Alongside, they will be doing some activities while studying. These activities are just self-practice. The activities will be presented as games or interactive apps.
There are two compulsory activities to complete and submit. These are the ones to have in mind for the final score. Nonetheless, the activities in every class are also significant to the final score.
Lessons are designed with hypertext logic, with embedded videos, articles, webpages, apps, quizzes, and the sort.
The assessment of this course will consider the following criteria:
Course outcomes will be evaluated through homework assignments, quizzes, exams, and oral presentations
