STATEMENT OF PERSONAL LEARNING GOALS.

What are your reasons for studying at “Carrera de Idiomas”?

Considering that English is one of the languages most spoken in

the world, my reasons are many, for example, I believe that

languages can help me get a job more easily, because knowing

another language is very important in the business world, and I

also think I can travel to another county to specialize in my career

and thus you could see new places and learn more things.

What are your own goals for this subject/syllabus?

In this syllabus my own goals are to learn new vocabulary in

order to expand my knowledge and have more ideas. Learn how

words are pronounced. Participate in discussions in class and to

answer the questions that are asked in English.

How will you achieve your goals?

I think for my goals I should be consistent and perseverant in

what I do, because the goals are not conducted in the overnight

and persistence is what I need right now.

What will you do every day or week to reach these goals?

As I mentioned in the previous paragraph consistent be one of the

steps to reach my goals. I will study new vocabulary every day.

That will help me to understand the language. Having more fluid

lexicon make me able to express clearly and coherently.

students will develop extensive reading skills by reading graded texts to develop their

independent learning activities when they are not on campus.

For the achievement of the learning outcomes, the communicative language teaching

approach, project-based learning and problem-based learning (PBL-ABP) will be used

in the entire lesson. Students will engage in pair and group work activities to use

English for real communication. Assessment will include diagnostic, formative and

summative activities. By the end of the semester, students will have developed the

he day Jo was normal, she forgot

her notebook and happened

unexpected things in his day, as her

friend Mike she took the car from his

mother’s Jo and crashed in the woods,

she scared because she did not know how

to affair the things she run to start a new

life, she saw many unexpected things, as

they were very rare not commonly

passed. After two days she returned

home and only found a note from her

mother saying that she

I think that the book is interesting and romantic.

It show who a girl deaf be in love of the boy and

describe the history of love of the both young.

I think that the girl has many fears like any

person. She is in love of Jim. She feel fear

because she doesn’t can hear and she afraid of

being rejected. She believed that she doesn’t fit

in the world maybe for her deafness. When she is

in love of Jim she feel very frightened because

she believe that Jim would reject, but is was

totally different to Jim also like she and they make boyfriends, in this moment

the doubts leave her head because Jim also feeling the same that Sam. When

pass the time she met with the girl of the red dress and she say her that she

wasn’t good for Jim because she was deaf and she can’t hear his music

because Jim was a band. Sam feel very bad because she think that the girl of

the red dress had the reason, and Sam think that Jim deserved something best

that she, because she was little thing for his. This history shows that we must

trust us regardless that the others says of us, we must be sufficiently mature to

self-analysis and know that are unique and worth much. Each person have

your own way of thinking and seeing things is that makes us different, and if

we have any disability should feel bad because it is what distinguishes us from

other people.

We feel confident that we are, because we will not get any feeling bad and

feeling that we are worthless, we must know that we are made for great things

36

and we must rely on ourselves.

I think the most interesting and amazing

journey that has been made on earth was the

trip to the moon by Neil Armstrong. the trip

was sent into space on July 16, 1969, and this

came on July 20 the same year. This is

considered as one of the most memorable

travel for humanity and technology, it was

very interesting for many people because

never before there has been such an

important event for the world. The commander Neil Armstrong became the

first human to set foot on the lunar surface, the July 21, 1969; this historical

event was broadcast across the globe from the premises of Parkes Observatory

in Australia.

The President of the United States at the time John F. Kennedy wanted to send

the first man to the moon, and yearning came true in 1969 when Neil

Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins came to the moon aboard Apollo

11. It was Armstrong who became the first man to touch the lunar surface.

The crew left on the moon an American flag and a plaque that read: "Here

men from the planet Earth first set foot upon the Moon, July 1969 AD In the

name of humanity, we come in peace."

of course this protocol for all man on the moon, they had to go through many

problems, these include the lack of scientists face the difficulties that face an

astronaut to move on the lunar surface with less than the Earth and the

psychological effects that this could cause serious. Also there was a possibility

that astronauts returned carrying some kind of contamination, so I prepared a

special place to fulfill quarantine. The three astronauts were in quarantine for

medical project. The aim was to avoid being contaminated by bacteria.

38

When they held a press conference in front of reporters in a plastic cage,

surrounded by strong air currents that formed a kind of "wind wall" measures

that prevented the transmission of any germs were presented.

FINAL REFLECTION

I think that the most important thing I learned in this syllabus is the

new vocabulary because I didn’t know many words and thanks to

the readings given by the teacher I learned vocabulary that is needed

in the first level. One of the very important things that I've managed

to learn is synonymous of the words, and also the different meaning

of the words have been helpful for me. So I can understand more

easily the texts presented. The learning are many, one of these

suffixes are they always go to the end of the word.

One of the strategies that have helped me achieve my learning is to

translate the words I do not understand and repeat at least 10 times

so I can memorize them. Another strategy is to read short texts aloud

to improve the pronunciation.
