Dear Students, 

For our lesson for today (Sept. 1st.)

(1) We have already dealt with our second session working with the 'Elevator Speech' document

(1.1) In the ‘Elevator Speech’ PPT document [located in the 'Material Docente' section] you will find the framework of reference for constructing your Elevator Speech. Also, you will find its corresponding rubric.

(1.2) You will also find 5 examples from 5 different FACSO study programs that may help you as a starting point to construct your own Elevator Speech. This document is also located in the 'Material Docente' section

(2) Please remember, that you may upload your Elevator Speech video [.mp4 format, ideally] in the ‘Tareas’ Section. The last day for you to upload this document is next Thursday, Sept. 22nd.

(2.2) If you upload this document after this date, you will get a 5.0 as a top mark.

For our next lesson (Sept. 5th.)

(1) We will be working on our lesson that will be divided into two parts as we already know, (a) Linguistic (some grammatical structures in communicational contexts for the most part and autonomous work for all of the asynchronous evaluations) and (b) Communicative (video debates) 

(1.1) For the second part of this next lesson, please, watch the following video (it contains English Subtitles), 'Politics of Science' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pw_lOi4g4I

(2.1) Once you have watched it, please think about the following question:

(2.1.1) To what extent do you agree/disagree with the following statement [from the video]: "In an effort to make strong arguments [to win an election] politicians are often distorting facts to support those arguments. So in a sense, science becomes a weapon in an electoral context'"

(2.2.2) With the information provided by the video comment on one point that you think is relevant. Provide two reasons for this relevance.

(3) We will also deal with our third session on the 'Elevator Speech activity which will be focused on practising your oral performance.

In case of doubt, please do not hesitate to contact me back, 

Best Regards
