Dear Students,
As we already know, the JGM campus will be closed by tomorrow at 13:30. Therefore, we will be having our lesson [14:30] in an online format as a request from the Faculty. Please do not worry, we will be reviewing the Blog Activity format and performing our lesson as usual (1. Formal-Linguistic; 2. Communicative [dad joke included])
This means that:
(1) 15 minutes before the synchronous (online) lesson starts, please log to ‘u-cursos’ ('Clase Virtual' section) and connect to the lesson from there
(2) Once the lesson is finished, I will be sending you 2 items,
(2.1) The teaching material (PPT file and an audio file), if required, and
(2.2) The lesson will be recorded for you to have an archive to look at. This video link will be attached to the 'Clase Virtual' section, in other words, the lesson audio-visual archive will be saved on ‘u-cursos’
Any questions you may have, either in English or Spanish, please feel free to write back.
