CATALAN LANGUAGE 2

The exercises in CATALAN LANGUAGE take place in participatory mode which provides for a communicative type of teaching for intermediate level students. The main purpose is to learn more about new aspects of the Catalan culture and language.

The general objective of the linguistic exercises is to develop all the linguistic skills (as well as the critical capacity of the student) in order to reach the levels required in each year. At the end of the course, the student reaches a B1+ elementary level of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) which he will be able to certify in the international Certifications of Catalan Language convened by the Institut Ramon Llull every year at Ca' Foscari.

Please refer to the "learning verification method" section of the generic course "LINGUA CATALANA 1"

The course has a highly practical and applied approach. It is a communicative type course developed to acquire optimal language skills in Catalan in small groups, which allows for the acquisition of the language in a much more effective and personalized way.
The teaching methodology includes resources of all kinds, from the classic grammar manual with exercises to more contemporary resources, such as YouTube, webseries in Catalan (Drama, Mai neva a ciutat), self-learning web platforms (h5p.cat), social networks (Instagram), songs, etc.
Furthermore, academic and cultural meetings will be held throughout the semester in order to listen, produce oral texts and interact in real cultural situations.

Italian

Enrolling in this course opens up to the student the possibility of participating in internships within our Department or abroad and language stays (in Catalonia, Valencia or Mallorca) organized by the Institut Ramon Llull and the Acadèmia Valenciana de la Llengua during the summer. In addition to purely academic activities, the Catalan section organizes language exchanges, literary days, cultural events, meetings on various topics in Catalan, study trips, film screenings ...
Furthermore, Ca 'Foscari will be the official seat for carrying out the Proves de certificació de Català as a Foreign Language, organized every year by the Institut Ramon Llull, in accordance with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (see http: //www.llull.cat/catala/aprendre_catala/certificats_examens.cfm).
