CONTINUAL ASSESSMENT: ORAL ONE. ALSO, AULA D´INFORMÁTICA

Hi Everyone,

Remember these dates:  Dec. 16th (Monday) for my Monday & Wednesday group
                                     Dec. 17th (Tuesday) for my Tuesday & Thursday group

On these days, in our aula (Aula 25) you will do an oral exercise.  This will be a conversation between two people about one of the following possibilities: 1) a person or persons (alive or dead), 2) a place (country, city, geographical area, etc.) or 3) an object (a building, machine, "tool", etc.).  YOU CANNOT TALK ABOUT ANYTHING RELATED TO SPAIN, CATALUÑA OR LATIN AMERICA!!  I do not want you to use Spanish or Catalan words.

Between the two of you, you must speak 6-8 minutes.  You may use notes, but you MAY NOT write out a text and read it.  If you do that, you will fail.

I will bring a sign-up sheet to class next week and you may put your names and topics on it.

Aula d´Informática:  On the day of the orals, we will meet in the Aula d´Informática first.  There, students will work on their individual grammatical and vocabulary problems using Linguassist.  After a pair of students does their oral, they will go back to the Aula d´Informática to continue their individual work. 

Thanks.

Chuck

POLICY ON GIVING ME HOMEWORK

Hi Everyone,

I think it is useful to put in writing what I´ve told you in class about when to give me papers, exercises, etc.  Please try to follow this. 

You are allowed to turn in any homework either the day I request it or the very next day.  Not the next class, but the next day.  The reason is that I want to see ALL the papers at the same time to see if there is a general problem, which, if there is, we will discuss in class.  Please try to follow this rule.  Thanks.

Chuck

Thursday, Nov. 7th (Festa Major)

Hi Everyone,

The decision was made by the Servei Dirección that there will be class all day, including those classes which begin at 1 p.m. and later, this Thursday, which is the Festa Major of the UAB.  On Tuesday, I will talk about this with you.  See you tomorrow.
