Methodologies Description
Guest lecture / keynote speech (Lecture sessions)
Oral presentations by the instructor which establish and relate scientific and disciplinary knowledge essential for the understanding of the subject. The presentation will be complemented by the use of pertinent resources (textual and/or audiovisual).
Document analysis Methodological technique that involves the use of audiovisual and/or bibliographic documents (segments of documentary reports or films, news, web pages, scientific articles, legislative texts, etc.) relevant to the subject matter, accompanied by activities specifically designed for their analysis.
Supervised projects The students of this course will participate in the Teaching Innovation Group "Map of languages in/of A Coruña" (MaLinCo). Their task related to this collaborative project will be to design a social action to raise awareness about linguistic and cultural diversity in the city of A Coruña.
The subject will be evaluated through an action/research proposal that will constitute a supervised project. The justification and the design of the proposal will draw upon the material addressed in the lecture sessions and directed discussions.
Directed discussion Sessions will be allocated to the introduction of questions addressed to students to encourage reflective dialogue. This approach is based on the conception of learning as a dialogical process, an act of (re) creation, relating and consolidating reflection and action. The debate will facilitate and promote the sharing and contrasting of informed opinions. With this methodology we aim to: identify difficulties in understanding; inspire divergent thinking; promote a connection with lived experiences; and develop awareness of and critically reconstruct new ways of thinking, feeling and acting. The directed discussion can be developed in person (in the classroom sessions) or virtual (forums).
