Course objectives
The aim of the subject is to make students familiar with the foreign language they have chosen. They have to demonstrate their knowledge and skills in the given subject both in speaking and writing. This subject deals with the main politological questions related to student´s field of study. Students have to be able to speak fluently on given issues, to find a similar article in foreign press of other media, to give a brief account of its content and to give brief answers to the lecturer´s questions. Students have to be able to give a competent response to each question. The greatest attention is paid to reading and understanding (the translation of the text) and student´s immediate reaction to it in a foreign language, including personal opinions on the given issue based on student´s own reading or experience. Students demonstrate the knowledge of phenomena and processes in their field of study, so in their future career they will be able to communicate on a randomly chosen topic in the foreign language they have studied because they will have achieved a B2 level according to the CEFR. They are able to explain and assess a current-affairs topic and to act immediately on the basis of their competence.
