THIS IMPLEMENTATION IS FULL.

This is an online implementation that is timetabled and requires the student to follow the timetable and to be able to work actively on the assignments. Please read through the following course description carefully.

The course has a VOLUNTARY start lesson on ZOOM on Mon 4th September 5 – 6.30 pm.

The level of this course is B2 (https://europass.cedefop.europa.eu/sites/default/files/cefr-fi.pdf), which is upper-intermediate level. The course is conducted fully in English.

The course includes several assignments that contribute to the final mark. You will have both written and oral learning assignments. The oral assignments are videos. There are also group assignments and an exam. Re-requisite: Reporting Skills or similar skills in referencing otherwise acquired.
