2. SUBJECT DESCRIPTION

a. PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION OF THIS SUBJECT RELATED TO

THE UNDERGRADUATE PROFILE.

English is widely used in all areas of knowledge. The students that come to this
Institution are not able to communicate in English with people from other
countries and cultures or even have the possibility to apply for graduate studies in
International Universities.

b. CONTRIBUTION THAT THIS SUBJECT HAS ON THE

UNDERGRADUATE STUDENT
English is a universal language. It is the second most spoken language in the world
and the first one in internet. For this reason, the knowledge of this language is an
important requirement to apply for scholarships to do graduate studies in Ecuador
and any country in the world.
 The communicative competence is the professional ideal in all educative matters.
Speaking English is a necessary tool for international cooperation and
professional enhancement. English as part of the curriculum in all university
studies fosters the development of communication as well as other general social
skills.

3. GENERAL OBJECTIVE OF THIS SUBJECT

The students will be able to listen, speak, read and write in English by using the
correct grammatical structures and vocabulary to communicate adequately and
holistically.

 5. METHODOLOGICAL STRATEGIES

Learning English is based upon the development of the four main language skills:
listening, reading, speaking, and writing as well as the language’s grammar in context
and its vocabulary. With purposes of communication the following activities are
developed:
 Listening to appropriate material.
 Reading different kinds of texts.
 Describing pictures/drawings orally and in writing.
 Narrating short stories orally and in writing.
 Representing characters in role plays.
 Giving and receiving instructions.

The different techniques used in the development of classes focus on communication

and cooperative learning with the participation of teachers and students and a permanent
interaction among them.
