Teaching language
Portuguese
Intended learning outcomes (Knowledges, skills and competencies to be developed by the students)
- To deepen fundamental knowledge of the area of Language Sciences and Portuguese Linguistics;
- To develop skills to adequately analyze grammar components of the Portuguese language;
- To describe and analyze the internal structure of words and the morphological processes of word formation;
- To describe and analyze the syntactic structure of sentences and the functions of syntactic constituents;
- To describe and analyze syntactic and semantic processes of complex sentence formation;
- To reflect on semantic aspects of the relations between words;
- To describe and analyze semantic values relevant to the interpretation of statements;
- To reflect on pragmatic aspects of Portuguese.
Syllabus
A. Components of grammar and levels of linguistic analysis
1. Morphology
1.1. Word and constituents of the word
1.2. Inflectional (nominal and verbal inflection)
1.3. Morphological processes of word formation
2. Syntax
2.1. Sentence and constituents of the sentence
2.2. Syntactic functions
2.3. Simple sentences and complex sentences
3. Semantics
3.1. At the lexicon level (semantic relations between words)
3.2. At the sentence level (propositional content, semantic values)
B. Pragmatic aspects
Demonstration of the syllabus coherence with the UC intended learning outcomes
The learning outcomes of the syllabus involve capabilities of metalinguistic reflection of aspects of morphology, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics of Portuguese. The development of these goals results from the mobilization of previous knowledge of linguistic analysis and the construction of knowledge about the programmatic contents. The learning resulting from the readings and the reflection on the programmatic contents support the development of the expected learning outcomes, both those of a more theoretical nature and those aimed at the professional practice of a future translator and interpreter.
Teaching methodologies
In Portuguese Linguistics II, methodologies that favor the relationship between theory and practice, based on theoretical exposition, on pedagogical interactions, on the completion of tasks (individual and in groups), on the research work, are valued. The development of skills, involving analysis and synthesis, critical reflection, as well as creativity, autonomy and the ability to carry out proposed tasks in a timely manner, is considered a priority.
The approach to the themes from the program will be the teacher’s responsibility. Further reflection and presentation of problems will be the students’ responsibility, and will, therefore, be subject to evaluation of class participation. Students will be encouraged to communicate and share their doubts, points of view, opinions, and arguments. Individual reading, in pairs or in groups, of class preparation texts and complementary texts are essential for the progress of learning.
Demonstration of the teaching methodologies coherence with the curricular unit's intended learning outcomes
The privileged methodologies guarantee the development of the learning outcomes of the program in a suitable way to the different profiles of students.
Throughout the learning process, the students are expected to mobilize fundamental concepts of Portuguese grammar and to master oral and written genres suitable for reading presentations, discussion of topics, research papers and reflecting on issues from the program of the curricular unit. At all times of class participation, they should demonstrate proficiency in oral and written expression for academic purposes and use of diversified conventional and technological supports, aiming at both the development of skills essential to the academic journey and the continuation of their professional training.
Assessment methodologies and evidences
Continuous evaluation is based on the following:
- Participation in class activities and completion of tasks (10%);
- Individual written test in class (50%);
- Research paper in groups and its oral presentation in class (40%).
As an alternative to continuous evaluation, students can take a final exam (100%). During the first week of classes, students should contact the teacher in order to choose the evaluation modality. If a student chooses the final exam, he/she may, like all the other students, access the class activities on Moodle.
Students with special status should contact the teacher of the curricular unit until the end of the first fortnight of the semester, in order to define ways of evaluation.
Attendance system
Students should attend to at least 75% of classes.
