Part 1

This part consists of two:

Part 1.A. Practicum

• You need to carry out 3 activities related to questions on linguistic, literary or socio-cultural issues, taking a 20th-century prose text as the basis. The text may be from a novel, essay or journalistic article. The questions are, as usual, varied and can be anyone’s guess, but they need to be related to the contents of the topics covered.

You will find some possible types in Our books  “Volumen Práctico” and “Analysis de Textos”. Also in the materials for language practice, we cover at the various Poppies Courses. You may also find our post text analysis of help.

You need to hand in your syllabus design when the panel call you  to present your rationale.

All the requirements your syllabus design needs to meet, together with the elements you need to include in your oral presentation are described in the Official Gazette of the Junta de Castilla La Mancha.  It is important to bear in mind that you have 30 minutes maximum for the rationale and 30 minutes for the didactic unit (1 hour in total).
