The purpose of the course is to build on prior learning and to develop progressively the candidate’s knowledge about the language, her/his competence in the four skills of Speaking, Writing, Reading and Listening, and her/his ability to handle the language in a number of defined contexts.

COURSE Modern Languages (Higher)
Language competence at Higher will be developed by extending the range and complexity of the language encountered by the candidates, and by encouraging an increase in range, fluency and accuracy in the language they produce. Candidates will be expected to handle previously encountered language situations, in which the information conveyed was mainly of a factual nature, with increased competence and confidence. They will also be expected to develop the further proficiency in the language necessary for understanding and expressing ideas and opinions.

The prescribed themes and topic areas at Higher provide the focus for a range of activities which develop the four skills of Speaking, Writing, Reading and Listening in a variety of combinations for different uses (productive, interactive, receptive, mediating), and provide a context for work aimed at developing the candidates’ knowledge of the structure/grammar of the language.

The additional 40 hours

The structure of Higher provides for an allocation of 40 hours in addition to the time allocation for each unit, giving a total time for the course of 160 hours. It is suggested that, at this level, the additional 40 hours might be used to provide added value in the following ways:

Induction:
• general overview of the objectives and content of the course
Extending the range of learning and teaching approaches:
• further opportunities for formal or informal group work
• use of self-study materials
Remediation, consolidation and extension:
• revising, recycling language as appropriate to meet the needs of all candidates .
Preparation for external assessment:
• preparing for course assessment elements which are not covered by internal assessment, such as translation and directed writing
