APPROACHES TO LEARNING AND TEACHING
The purpose of the course is to build on prior learning and to develop progressively the candidate’s knowledge of the language, her/his competence in the four skills of Speaking, Writing, Reading and Listening, and her/his ability to handle the language in defined contexts. At this level, the development of the ability to understand and to express ideas and opinions in the target language will form an important part of the course and Unit content.
Language competence at Intermediate 2 level will be developed by extending the range and complexity of the language encountered by the candidates and by encouraging an increase in the range, fluency and accuracy in the language that they produce. In addition to exchanging factual information with increased competence and confidence in the prescribed language contexts, candidates will be expected to begin to develop the proficiency in the language necessary for understanding and expressing ideas and opinions. Course assessment will derive from the three prescribed themes and will test the language ability as defined above.
The prescribed themes and topics 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.

Language development will be encouraged in the following ways:
Language use – productive/interactive/mediating:

• by extending the candidate’s ability to exchange factual information orally and in writing in the target language on events and issues of personal and topical interest

• by extending the candidate’s ability to express simple views and opinions orally and, where appropriate, in writing in the target language on events and issues of personal and topical interest
Language use – receptive/interactive/mediating:

• by extending the candidate’s ability to listen to texts of increasing length in the target language and demonstrate understanding of language of increasing complexity related to the prescribed themes

• by extending the candidate’s ability to read texts of increasing length in the target language related to the prescribed themes, for gist and detailed understanding
Knowledge about language:

• by extending the candidate’s awareness of key aspects of grammatical structure

• by extending the range of grammatical structure which the candidate can deploy
