Course Content (Syllabus)
The course aims to familiarize university students with the reality of foreign language teaching to teenagers (in public and private schools of Primary and Secondary Education), and adults (Foreign Language Schools, Adult Education Centers). This is achieved through practice by attending the educational/pedagogical procedure in class (mentoring) as well as supervised and parallel teaching. The course actually requires teaching attendance, teaching material production, and its application in virtual (microteaching and practice of teaching skills) or in real class. The Practice Programme aims to the promotion of didactic, pedagogical and educational research. Especially, it is attempted the conduction between the theoretical knowledge, acquired in the previous semesters, and the practical application in class as well the familiarity with the educational reality.

Digital platforms and educational software support the creation of playful activities and the application of multimodal texts, enhancing learning through technology. Additionally, students use ICT to develop, present, and evaluate their teaching scenarios, strengthening their collaborative and creative skills.
