Introduction
"English is the language of the future, the language of the computer. You have the right to English. Make it your right!" Benjamin Zephaniah, (British poet, writer, actor)
Dragi tineri,
Felicitri c ai ales s urmai cursurile de limba englez din cadrul programului A doua ans. Nevoia de micare i informaie din lumea contemporan, dar i necesitatea comunicrii eficiente cu cei din jur, fac ca studiul unei limbi strine s devin un element de care nu ne putem lipsi, dac dorim s facem fa cu succes provocrilor profesionale, dar i personale. n orice domeniu am lucra, se face simit nevoia de a nelege o limb strin. Atunci cnd cltorim sau primim oaspei dintr-o ar strin ne descurcm mult mai uor dac putem comunica ntr-o limb de larg rspndire, cum este limba englez. n plus, cunoaterea unei limbi strine ne ajut s nelegem mai bine modul de gndire al persoanelor de alt naionalitate i chiar s ne redescoperim pe noi nine n raport cu cellalt. Experiena nvrii unei limbi strine v va ajuta s nvai mai uor i alte limbi strine, n funcie de provocrile crora va trebui s le facei fa. Acest curs v va sprijini n invarea limbii engleze prin exerciii i activiti de comunicare care se bazeaz pe cunotine anterioare minime. Dac nu ai nvat pn acum niciodat limba englez, nu trebuie s v ngrijorai, pentru c profesorul vostru va adapta leciile n funcie de cunotinele i nevoile voastre. Dac dimpotriv, avei deja cunotine de baz, v va face plcere s v sprijinii colegii, descoperind lucruri noi mpreun cu ei. Fiecare dintre noi avem stiluri de nvare diferite. V sugerm s analizai n permanen modul n care nvai: observai care sunt activitile pe care le considerai uoare i care sunt cele care presupun mai mult efort. Poate c nvai mai uor atunci cnd cineva v prezint i explic clar nite reguli, sau poate c nvai mai uor imitnd un model. Unii vor prefera activitile scrise, alii pe cele orale, unii activitile individuale, alii pe cele n pereche sau echip. V recomandm s facei nsemnri periodice ntr-un jurnal de nvare, n care s notai activitile care v-au plcut, cele pe care le-ai considerat uoare sau grele, etc. Acest lucru v va oferi ocazia de v nregistra succesele, dar i de a trece peste dificulti. 4

Get ready!
Ai reuit s parcurgei cursul de limba englez din cadrul Programului A doua ans. Felicitri! Este momentul s facei din nou nsemnri n jurnalul de nvare. Pentru a comunica bine ntr-o limb strin, avem nevoie de patru abiliti de baz: nelegerea dup auz, cititul, vorbitul i scrisul. n care dintre cele patru abiliti simii c ai fcut progresele cele mai mari? De care dintre cele patru abiliti avei nevoie cel mai mult n ceea ce facei (n munc, vizite etc.)? Ce fel de exerciii sau activiti v-ar putea ajuta s v mbuntii abilitile de care avei nevoie cel mai mult? nainte de evaluarea final, reluai fiecare lecie i analizai n special seciunea introductiv "What you will learn" i cea final "Check this!". Acest lucru v va ajuta s identificai ariile n care nu v simii nc destul de bine pregtit, permindu-v s v canalizai eforturile ntr-acolo. Reluai apoi exerciiile din fiele de auto-evaluare. Dac ai dat deja teste de parcurs, revedei corecturile i explicaiile profesorului dumneavoastr. Asigurai-v c le-ai neles. Dac e nevoie, cerei explicaii suplimentare. Revedei cuvintele i expresiile folosite n fiecare lecie. Folosii vocabularul de la sfritul manualului dac nu v amintii nelesul unora dintre acestea. n final, ncercai s compunei exerciii asemntoare cu cele din fiele de auto-evaluare. Fcnd acest lucru, vei sesiza unde pot aprea probleme. Lucrai mpreun cu unul din colegii de clas i facei schimb de exerciii. Rezolvai fiecare exerciiile compuse de cellalt i apoi discutai mpreun. Acolo unde nu suntei sigur care este varianta corect, consultai seciunea respectiv din manual sau solicitai sprijinul profesorului. n final, adoptai o atitudine pozitiv fa de evaluare: rostul acesteia nu este s sancioneze nereuita ci s sprijine nvarea.
