- Carrying out autonomous activities: booklet exercises, preparation of tests, readings, essays, investigation of information on the Internet.
- Classroom exchanges (teacher-student, student-student).
- Tests of grammar, written/oral expression and written/oral comprehension.
Annotation: Within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.

Correction of activities and evaluation tests shall take into account that a sufficient degree of achievement of competencies has been achieved according to the expected learning outcomes, as set out in point 5 of this Teaching Guide.
The evaluation system will be organized into three modules:
1) Four presencial written and oral comprehension and production and use of grammar and vocabulary tests
2) Give a presencial oral presentation
3) Final presencial exam
The evaluation of the course will be continuous and will include the work done throughout the course, both the various tests and the works delivered throughout the semester. It will be considered as 'not evaluable' if the student has delivered less than 30% of the assignments assigned to the course and has performed less than 30% of the tests. Therefore, if the student has done more than 30% of each part, it will be evaluated. To participate in the recovery, the student must have been previously evaluated in a set of activities whose weight equals to a minimum of 2/3 parts of the total grade. Only students with an average grade of 3.5 will be entitled to recovery. Excluded from the recovery process may be activities that are not recoverable (for example, oral presentations, group work or activities related to daily teaching)
Plagiarism: The total and partial plagiarism of any of the exercises will automatically be considered a FAIL (0) of the plagiarized exercise. It is considered PLAGIARISM to copy from unidentified sources of a text, whether it is a single phrase or more, which is presented as someone's own production (this includes copying phrases or fragments from the Internet and adding them without modifications to the text that is presented as someone's own), and it is a serious offense.
PARTICULAR CASES: Lusophone students must meet the same assessment conditions as other students, even if the teacher instructs them not to attend class. The responsibility of the follow-up of theeducational and evaluation activities falls exclusively to the student.
Single Assessment
This subject does not incorporate single assessment.
