Tento kurz je PRIMÁRNĚ určen studentům PREZENČNÍHO studia. Ve vyjímečných případech je možné studovat formou samostudia on-line kurz cjva2p na základě udělení výjimky. Absolvování kurzu CJVA1M není podmínkou pro zápis kurzu CJVA2M. INFORMACE O PREREKVIZITĚ - DIAG. TEST CJVA_t: Vážení studenti, vzhledem k poměrně náročným požadavkům předmětu specializované angličtiny na vašich fakultách a vašim rozdílným vstupním znalostem je důležité, abyste si ověřili, zda tyto znalosti odpovídají standardizovaným požadavkům pro jednotlivé obory. Z tohoto důvodu budete zapsáni do předmětu Diagnostický test. Test tedy mohou skládat jen studenti, kteří mají zaregistrovaný předmět CJVA-t, jinak se výsledky testu nemohou do poznámkového bloku zapsat.Z tohoto důvodu je nutné si předmět CJVA-t zapsat před spuštěním testu. Jeho cílem je rychle a objektivně posoudit, zda vaše znalosti angličtiny oné vstupní úrovni odpovídají. Po vypracování testu si v tzv. interaktivní osnově tohoto předmětu srovnáte své výsledky s Evropským referenčním rámcem pro jazyky a pokud požadované úrovně nedosahujete, rozhodnete se, jak si je doplníte - zda si mezery v gramatice a nedostatečnou slovní zásobu doplníte na některé z jazykových škol, individuálním samostudiem nebo zda se přihlásíte do kurzu Online_A, který nabízí Pedagogická fakulta MU a je bez prezenční výuky. U testu proto nepodvádějte, protože jeho výsledky jsou především ukazatelem pro vás samotné, a pokud budou nadhodnocené, je velmi pravděpodobné, že na studium odborné angličtiny nebudete stačit. Předmět se ani neukončuje, ani za něho nejsou žádné kredity, je to jen služba pro vás, abyste zavčas zjistili své případné nedostatky v angličtině a mohli se podle toho v předstihu zařídit. - Course Enrolment Limitations

- Course objectives
- The aim of the course is to achieve the B2 level( based on the Common European Framework of Reference) of English language competence. Students can understand the main ideas of relatively complex text on both concrete and academic/professional topics, including discussions in their field of specialisation; can interact with a degree of fluency and spontaneity that makes regular interaction with native speakers quite possible without strain for either party; can produce clear, detailed text on a wide range of academic/professional subjects and explain a viewpoint on a topical issue giving the advantages and disadvantages of various options. Listening: Students can understand extended speech and lectures and follow even complex lines of argument provided the topic is reasonably familiar. They can understand most media news and current affairs programmes. Reading: Students can read academic/professional texts without great difficulty. They can read articles and reports concerned with contemporary problems in which the writers adopt a particular stance or viewpoint. Spoken interaction: Students can interact with a degree of fluency and spontaneity that makes regular interaction with native speakers quite possible. They can take an active part in discussion in familiar contexts, accounting for and sustaining their views. Written interaction: Students can write both formal and informal letters/emails, applications and cover letters. Spoken production: Students can present clear, detailed descriptions on a wide range of academic/professional subjects related to their field of study and interest. They can explain a viewpoint on a topical issue giving the advantages and disadvantages of various options. Students can write short academic texts, summaries and resumes. Written production: Students can write clear, detailed text on a wide range of subjects related to their field of study and interest. They can write a short academic text, summary, and resume passing on information or giving reasons in support of or against a particular point of view. Grammar accuracy: Students show a relatively high degree of grammatical control. They do not make errors which cause misunderstanding, and can correct most of their mistakes. They can also use some complex sentence forms. Grammar and language fluency: Students can produce stretches of language with a fairly even tempo; although they can be hesitant as they search for patterns and expressions, there are few noticeably long pauses. Coherence: Students can use a limited number of cohesive devices to link their utterances into clear, coherent discourse, though there may be some short pauses in a long contribution
