2.7 COMMITMENTS: English is an interactive class in which students will be actively involved in the learning process. Student learning is a top priority. Students will work in total group, small group, partner or independently, according to the planned activities. The teacher will apply the most suitable model for learning using communicative and cognitive approaches. Students are expected to come to class prepared and attentive to ensure a productive learning environment. Students must show courtesy and respect to their fellow students and to the teacher. In order to participate actively in this class, please

Make sure you have completed the registration process to attend to the class.

Arrive on time. (Avoid corrective decisions for arriving late).

To justify a missing class, you must show a certificate (within the first 48 workable hours) validated at UTN´s Bienestar Universitario.

Keep in mind the FIRST Registration is FREE! The SECOND Registration is 10% of the minimum weight salary and

THIRD Registration (ONLY IN SPECIAL SITUATIONS) 15% of the minimum weight salary. If you failed a Second

registration and your situation is not ¨special,¨ you would need to approve English outside the University and present

the ¨Sufficiency¨ test at UTN in order to continue with your studies at UTN.

Class Participation and Freedom of Expression

We must be aware that in situations, which involve expression of opinion and critical thinking, we are sure to have differences and may at times have strongly held opinions or views. Such differences make for interesting and challenging discussions. They provide us also with the opportunity to practice listening skills and respect for views which may not match our own. It is advisable to participate in class so that you do not miss this learning experience.

Attendance counts heavily in the student evaluation, absences and tardiness must be avoided.

Independent learning:

Students are expected to spend time studying independently outside the class, to review notes, to complete weekly and daily assignments, and to prepare for the following class session. The teacher will provide guidance, facilities and materials to help develop the student´s expertise as language learners according to the English level. Students are asked to consolidate their class work, to read, to watch or to listen to material in English, to prepare exercises and activities for the class, to write assignments, to undertake projects and generally to acquire a repertoire of effective language learning strategies.

Students should schedule an hour of independent learning, outside of class, for every academic hour in class. Teachers should:

Take the time to familiarize the students with the syllabus and where to find it.

Get to and leave class on time.

Plan the lesson.

Build up own quizzes and tests for students.

Review and grade students’ homework, classwork and tests (48 workable hours).

Show respect to their students in and outside the classroom.

Follow the policies of CAI and UTN University.

Provide students with clear instructions and rubric when doing exams, pair work and group work.

Provide students with extra material for reviewing.

Inform the students their GPA (Grade Point Average) before entering the grades into the system.
