Magistrale 1 course and exam description can be found in the Guida di Anglistica / English faculty guide to be published shortly

Changing Group aa. 24-25: students requesting to change group firstly need to find a student from the other group to swap with then send a single email (DO NOT WRITE SEPARATELY ) to the teacher explaining the reason for the change. A timetable clash must be fully specified and you should specify whether English is your first or second language. This must be done within the first FOUR lessons of the semester. I will confirm the change only after reviewing timetable options and class sizes. Those who have not found a pair can be added to a waiting list.

N.B. If you do not intend to attend courses regularly, there is no reason to change group. The lettorato exam is the same for all, attending in either group and non-attending students alike. The Magistrale 1 lettorato exam is skills based and not having mastered the required skills will leave students unprepared for the tasks involved.

LCLT3 aa 24-25 or before: please contact aoife.beville@uniroma1.it as I am no longer teaching this course.

Please note the following changes to LCLT3 Exam from September 2024:

Part 1: Discourse matching task

Part 2: An error correction task
Part 3: An essay of 300-350 words.
Part 4: An oral exam for those students who achieved ‘SUFF’ or higher will be scheduled at a later date.

Samples of the new written exam formats are provided below:

INFORMATION REGARDING ATTENDANCE:

Students are encouraged to attend lessons at Marco Polo but must book the lesson/s the previous week on Prodigit on the university website. Prodigit is controlled by the university administration and students will be admitted in rotation by matricola number following the pre-established alphabet divisions. You may book your pre-established week to attend from Monday to Thursday and if it is not your pre-established week but wish to attend, please book from Friday to Sunday.

For those intending to follow the course exclusively online any requests to change assigned group will be confirmed after reviewing timetable options and class sizes. To be considered for a group change online, students must find a student from another group willing to swap. Online groups must, however, remain roughly equal in numbers and any disparity between group sizes will limit the possibilty of change.
