  Description
Problem solving, classroom exercises Explanations of the textual types, grammar and terminology of the English language characteristic of Aerospace Engineering with visual and audiovisual support, powerpoint presentations, Moodle platform, photocopies and textbook. In accordance with the most relevant current methodologies, the sessions will always combine theory and active practice of the language. During the sessions, students will have to solve problems and do activities related to both the field of aerospace engineering and the world of work and academia. Much importance will be given to the active participation of the student as well as the development of communication skills that will allow the student to use English beyond the classroom, especially in future work contexts.
Seminars To make language learning more practical, the seminars will work with teaching through tasks, the so-called "task-based approach", to enhance the students' communicative capacity.
Personal tuition Students will have consultation hours at their disposal in individual or group tutoring format, in which they will be able to resolve difficulties arising from the content of the subject, as well as obtain other sources of information to improve their linguistic skills.
Lecture Explanations of the textual types, grammar and terminology of the English language characteristic of Aerospace Engineering with visual/audiovisual support of powerpoint presentations and photocopies, as well as other bibliographical references.

Assessment
  Description Qualification
Others The evaluation of the student's work (both face-to-face and non-face-to-face) and the acquired skills will be carried out by appropriately weighting the following activities:

-Periodic work carried out individually or in groups
-Complementary activities
-Exams

There will be 2 written evaluation tests, each of which will be worth 35% of the final grade. The remaining 30% will come from the continuous evaluation of the subject and will correspond to solving problems or performing exercises either in the classroom or as homework outside the classroom. In order to pass the subject it will be necessary to have obtained at least 35% of the total 70% that corresponds to the 2 written evaluation tests and 15% of the 30% with which the tasks are assessed.

Without the minimum 35% average of the written tests, the percentage corresponding to the continuous evaluation cannot be added.
 
Other comments and second call 
Students who do not pass in the first call may take a final exam in the second call with a value of 70% and the grade obtained in the continuous evaluation will be kept (30%), which cannot be taken again.

It is strictly prohibited to bring any electronic device or unauthorized material into the classroom during evaluation tests. In the event of any attempt at plagiarism, copying or fraud in the exams (use of electronic devices to exchange or consult information for oneself or for other classmates, manipulation of unauthorized notes, etc.), the action guidelines approved by the University, which will mean the immediate withdrawal of the exam, its expulsion from it and its qualification as a fail, communicating the incident to the Academic Authority of the Center so that it can carry out the actions provided for in the Guidelines for Action in Cases of Plagiarism, Copy or Fraud in Examinations or Evaluation Tests, approved by the Permanent Commission of the Government Council on January 29, 2015.
