Spoken and Written Discourse
SpokenIt typically relies on paralinguistic and nonverbal channels. No one speaks
without showing one's attitude toward the message and the speech activity.
WrittenIt relies on lexicalization for the establishment of cohesion by choosing words
with just the right connotation and using complex syntactic constructions.
Produce &
ExchangeDiscourse can be transmitted through oral means (a conversation, a conference
or a job interview) or by written means (a letter, a book or a newspaper article).
CoherenceA text is said to be coherent if for a certain hearer or reader when he is able to fit
its different elements into a single overall mental representation.
Culture
DifferenceStudents can become more critically aware of the social structure and ideologies
of a culture or community that produces the discourse.
Spoken Discourse Written Discourse
The message is captured by the ears. The message is captured by the eye.
There is interaction between the transmitter and receiver. No feedback from the receiver of the message.
Commonly, the message content refers to general topics. Commonly , the content of the message refers to specific topics.
It is momentary, lasts only the instant it is issued. It is durable, it remains in a format (book, magazine, etc..)
It is spontaneous and immediate and can not be deleted. It can be corrected as often as necessary.
The language is informal. The language is formal.
Presence of nonverbal resources: intensity of voice, rhythm,
tone.
Presence of verbal resources: typography, headings and subheadings, punctuation, paragraph organization.
Use of short, simple sentences. Use of longer and more complex sentences.
It carries brands dialects (geographical, social). It neutralizes dialectal marks.
Delivery emotional information from the issuer. Delivery reference information from the issuer.
Communicative Functions
Modes of organization
Text is organized from
propositions or
statements that list
qualities, properties,
characteristics of
object or phenomenon.
DESCRIPTION
Present some facts in a
temporal and casual
sequence. The narrative
can be presented in
different genres of
discourse.
NARRATIVE
The reasons and
arguments that make
up the text are
designed to provide a
system of values or an
opinion.
ARGUMENTATIVE
The explanation is to
raise awareness, do
understand and clarify
a particular issue. Its
purpose is to modify a
state of knowledge.

View of L2:
Social,Affective, Cognitive Constructivism
It focuses on opportunities to encourage both individual flexibility and affinity to a learning community.
He mediates to foster some benefits from the freedom of individual learning and other benefitsfrom social collaborative learning
Learners must work together in order to succeed and personal success only springs from group success
It meet five criteria: positive interdependence, individual accountability, face-to-face interaction, appropriate use of collaborative skills, and regular self-assessment of team functioning.
Tools may include Virtual Classrooms (i.e. geographically distributed classrooms linked by audio-visual network connections), chat, discussion threads, application sharing.

View of L2:
Communicative,Affective , Social Constructivism
It involvesdetermining themeaning andsignificance ofwhat is observedor expressed, or,concerning agiven inferenceor argument,determiningwhether there isadequatejustification toaccept theconclusion astrue.
Teachers foster critical thinking fosters reflectivenessin students by asking questions that stimulate thinking essential to the construction of knowledge.
All students must do their own thinking, their own construction of knowledge. Learners construct in their minds the basic ideas, principles, and theories that are inherent in content.
Internalization, application
It is an active process. Classroom instruction, homework, term papers, and exams, therefore, should emphasize active intellectual participation by the student. The intellectual skills of critical (thinkinganalysis, synthesis, reflection)must be learned by actually performing them.

They are procedures that include various techniques, operations, specific activitiesthat pursue a specific purpose such as learning and academic problems solution.
These allow and enable students to develop their own knowledge. They are toolslearned in social-cultural contexts of interaction with someone who knows more.
Importance of ICT in the University
Learning Strategies -L2 - ICT
Suarez & Cebrián
Transmission of knowledge is one of the fundamental pillars of academic institutions,then the technological apparatus significantly contribute to the development oflearning and, therefore, the importance of ICT cooperation with university academicprogress.
This transmission in terms of learning strategies empower learners with thistechnological platform and foreign languages and the social-cultural context implied.
Importance of ICT in the university, among which it is worth noting the
following:
-Expand access to education.
-Improve the quality of learning.
-Improve the relationship between costs and effectiveness of teaching.
-Allow adaptation to a working world where technologies are used.

Suarez & Cebrián
Language Learning by means of ICT
ICT provides dynamic media presentations and online self-assessment tools.
Computer Assisted Language Learning: it is used as anaid to presentation, reinforcement and assessment, ofmaterial (combination of text, images, sound and ideas).
Learning supported by ICT in virtual environments is gaining popularity.
Educational settings supported by ICT is fruitful in knowledge construction.
This technological approach on L2 is defined as CALL
LESSON OUTLINE
Level: Intermediate. Time: 90 minutes.
Topic: A lost Society.
Aim: To develop students' ability to identify what type of text it is
(Description) and to take information from it and construct their own
opinions about it.
Communicative function: To discuss one´s opinions and arguments about
a topic (Critical Thinking & Cooperative Learning).
Material and resource:
a) Strips of paper for ice break activity,
b) board and marker and
c) photocopied material.
LESSON OUTLINE
PREINSTRUCTIONAL STAGE
Enunciation of the objectives of the lesson and subject to be studied.
Ice break activity. I will have students work in groups of 3 or 4. Several strips of
paper are given to the students in order to put the parts into the correct order to
form a whole text. (Groups competition).
I will do some quick feedback to make sure they have the correct order and ask
them how they know the order.
Then, I will hand out the photocopies containing the activities.
LESSON OUTLINE
COINSTRUCTIONAL STAGE
Task 1. Deducing meaning of words.
I will have students read the whole text again and share their ideas about this
ethnical society, even if any body has ever been to that place.
I will ask students to write in the worksheet the words in bold in the text that
match the definitions.
Correction of task 1 (Students and teacher).
Task 2. Deducing syllable stress.
I will have students read out the vocabulary words and ask students to decide
how many syllables each word has and which syllable is stressed.
Correction of task 2 (Students and teacher).
LESSON OUTLINE
POSTINSTRUCTIONAL STAGE
Task 4. Stimulating Thinking / Written and Oral Production.
In this activity I will stress that there is no correct / incorrect answer. They
should complete the sentences according to their own opinion.
After the groups of students have completed the sentences they should
compare and discuss with the whole class.
Task 3. Order of Description.
I will ask students to skim the reading and put the facts under the correct
heading in the table.
Correction of task 3 (Students and teacher).
CONCLUSION
Discourses may develop different features. In other words, they normally
use more than a couple of words and sentences; they produce longer
stretches of language arranged into a single overall mental representation.
People use the language for communicating through coherent and
cohesive stretches of language. As people can communicate through the
spoken and written means, there are spoken and written discourses that
reveal a social, affective, psychological communicative event.
These chunks of language are connected in a logical way transmitting a
specific message. This process is called discourse, and its linguistic
product is called text whose analysis comes from humanistic principles
within the liberating thought headed by our nations .
