Methodology

     Key input will be provided to participants throughout the course in the form of language-based activities and models. Participants will not only be expected to complete these activities and understand these models but also provide proof of an active mastery of the points covered. To that end, participants will be expected to apply the language and models to their own situation and data and will thus 'build' the different parts of a future presentation as they proceed through the course. Both lecturer-participant and participant-participant evaluation will be encouraged.

Ingenieros y todas aquellas personas que trabajen en el área de ingeniera y que por su puesto de trabajo realicen presentaciones.
