Intended learning outcomes (Knowledges, skills and competencies to be developed by the students)
Knowledge of a non-native language and culture leads to the development of new ways of communicating. This process is both intimately linked to the self and his or hers individuality, and to the subjects’ cultural diversity. Moreover, this process drives the improvement of communicative, personal relations and behavioural skills. Ultimately, these skills contribute to widening horizons by developing a spirit of understanding, openness and facilitating adaptation to an ever-changing society.
The ability of communicate in a non-native language is essential in both the multilingual and multicultural Europe and in the globalised world of today. By knowing the Portuguese Language and Culture (PLC) course the students will develop linguistically and culturally by combining the linguistic character of learning with the cultural character. Throughout the course we will also discusses the historical, geographical, political, literary and artistic framework behind the subjects taught.
