Teachers: Morena Carla Lanieri (practical language module); Mara Morelli (linguistics module). AIMS AND CONTENT AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES LETTORATO (practical language part): Level C1 according to the European Framework. The course aims to consolidate the linguistic-communicative competence, also in terms of metalinguistic analysis and pragmatics; it allows to achieve not only good comprehension and production skills (both oral and written) but also to communicate interactively in a fluent and spontaneous way. The goal is to achieve not only good comprehension and production skills (both oral and written) but also fluent and interactive communication. LINGUISTICS MODULE: it aims to support students in developing basic linguistic and sociocultural pragmatic competence, meant as the ability to analyse, understand and produce adequate linguistic performances in different situations and settings (also intercultural), according to the context and the receivers. TEACHING METHODS Contact hours and the Aulaweb platform as a support and repository. Attendance is highly recommended. Students who cannot attend at least 50% of contact hours must contact teachers at the beginning of the year (October) to get more information on their study. SYLLABUS/CONTENT LETTORATO (practical language part) (for students with 9 and 6 CFU): The course aims to reach C1 level by consolidating the acquired skills and competences, also developing a linguistic-communicative competence, in terms of metalinguistic analysis and pragmatics; it allows to achieve not only good comprehension and production skills (both oral and written) but also to communicate interactively in a fluent and spontaneous way. LINGUISTICS MODULE Only for students with 9 CFU: The course is divided into two, strictly interrelated, parts: linguistic and sociocultural pragmatics. The course aims to enable students to develop pragmatic competence and to understand, analyse and produce different communicative events in different settings, also from an intercultural and sociocultural point of view. The course includes not only theory lectures on pragmatics, but also their practical application to the Spanish language and varieties.

It comprises three tests: a) Summary: comprehension and processing of one of the text types and genres dealt with during the course (5 points); b) A brief argumentation on a specific topic present in the previous text or related to one of the topics dealt with during the course (5 points); c) Grammar and vocabulary: 2 exercises (10 points). 2) Oral part: it consists of an interactive talk on the topics dealt with during the course (10 points). ASSESSMENT CRITERIA Written tests will check reading comprehension and written expression, lexical, morphosyntactic and grammatical skills to reach a C1 competence. The oral test will check expression and oral interaction skills on current topics addressed during the course in the classroom (mandatory reading: Dosier). The following will be taken into account for the assessment and the final grade: - the ability to identify relevant information in a text; - fluency and expository correction; - cohesion and discursive coherence; - lexical mastering; - personal critical and argumentative contribution. LINGUISTICS MODULE (for students with 9 CFU). The written test is made up of four questions which require open answers. Memory and notional study is not the core since the following will be assessed: descriptive critical analysis skills, adequacy (as to the terminology and the register used) and language mastering.
