Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to motivate students to increase their language competence. Students are expected to use the foreign language primarily when working with sources and literature related to their research topic, for the production of their own texts, and for communication within the scientific community. Students can enrol in language courses organised by the Faculty of Arts at the University of Pardubice. The current offer includes English at level B1, B1P, B2, and B2P
The course is focused on acquiring the ability to use previously gained knowledge. The courses combine new and old knowledge, so confidence and fluency in using the language are also practiced. When listening to audio recordings, speaking, or writing, students will manage to communicate and comprehend different accents from various speaking areas.
