Descripción de las normas del curso
1. Este curso sigue el modelo “Discipline-Based Dual Language Immersion Model®” del
Sistema Universitario Ana G. Méndez, Inc. el cual está diseñado para promover el
desarrollo de cada estudiante como un profesional bilingüe. Cada taller será facilitado en
inglés y español, utilizando el modelo 50/50. Esto significa que cada taller deberá ser
conducido enteramente en el lenguaje especificado. Los lenguajes serán alternados en
cada taller para asegurar que el curso se ofrezca 50% en inglés y 50% en español. Para
mantener un balance, el módulo debe especificar que se utilizarán ambos idiomas en el
quinto taller, dividiendo el tiempo y las actividades equitativamente entre ambos idiomas.
Las primeras dos horas son estrictamente en español y las últimas dos en inglés. Los
cursos de idiomas deben ser desarrollados en el idioma correspondiente, en inglés o en
español, según aplique.
2. El curso es conducido en formato acelerado y bilingüe, esto requiere que los estudiantes
sean sumamente organizados, enfocados y que se preparen antes de cada taller de acuerdo
al módulo. El estudiante debe hacer todo esfuerzo para desarrollar las destrezas en los dos
idiomas usando los recursos de lenguaje disponibles dentro y fuera de la institución. El
convertirse en un profesional bilingüe es un proceso complejo y exigente. Cada taller
requiere un promedio de diez (10) horas de preparación y en ocasiones requiere más para
poder tener éxito lingüístico y académico.
3. La asistencia a todos los talleres es obligatoria. El estudiante que se ausente al taller
deberá presentar una excusa razonable al facilitador. El facilitador evaluará si la ausencia
es justificada y decidirá cómo el estudiante repondrá el trabajo perdido, de ser necesario.
EDUC 645 Introduction to School Counseling 10
Updated 05/28/2013
2El facilitador puede elegir una de estas dos alternativas: (a) permitirle al estudiante
reponer el trabajo o (b) asignarle trabajo adicional además del trabajo que el estudiante
tenga que reponer.
Toda tarea a ser completada antes del taller deberá ser entregada en la fecha asignada. El
facilitador ajustará la nota de las tareas repuestas.
4. Si un estudiante se ausenta a más de un taller el facilitador tendrá las siguientes
opciones:
a. Si es a dos talleres, el facilitador reducirá la nota existente en un grado.
b. Si el estudiante se ausenta a tres talleres, el facilitador reducirá la nota
existente en dos grados.
5. La asistencia y participación en actividades de la clase y en presentaciones orales es
extremadamente importante pues éstas no se pueden reponer. Si el estudiante provee una
excusa válida y verificable, el facilitador determinará una actividad equivalente a evaluar
que sustituya la misma. Esta actividad deberá incluir el mismo contenido y componentes
del lenguaje como la presentación oral o actividad que requiera repuesta.
6. En actividades grupales, el grupo será evaluado por su trabajo final. Sin embargo, cada
miembro de grupo deberá participar y cooperar para lograr un trabajo de excelencia. Los
estudiantes también recibirán una calificación individual.
7. Se espera que todo trabajo escrito sea de la autoría de cada estudiante y no plagiado. Se
requiere que todo trabajo sometido al facilitador cumpla con las reglas para citar
apropiadamente o que esté parafraseado y citado dando crédito al autor. Todo estudiante
debe ser el autor de su propio trabajo. Todo trabajo que sea plagiado, copiado o presente
trazos del trabajo de otro estudiante o autor será calificado con cero.
EDUC 645 Introduction to School Counseling 11
Updated 05/28/2013
El servicio de SafeAssign TM
de Blackboard será utilizado por los facilitadores para
verificar la autoría de los trabajos escritos de los estudiantes. Es responsabilidad del
estudiante de leer la política de plagio de su universidad. Si usted es estudiante de UT,
deberá leer la Sección 11.1 del Manual del Estudiante.
Si es estudiante de UMET y UT, refiérase al Capítulo 13, secciones 36 y 36.1 de los
respectivos manuales.
Se espera un comportamiento ético en todas las actividades del curso. Esto implica que
TODOS los trabajos tienen que ser originales y que para toda referencia utilizada deberá
indicarse la fuente, bien sea mediante citas o bibliografía utilizando el estilo APA,
versión 6. No se tolerará el plagio y, en caso de que se detecte casos del mismo, el
estudiante se expone a recibir cero en el trabajo y a ser referido al Comité de Disciplina
de la institución. Los estudiantes deben observar aquellas prácticas dirigidas para evitar
incurrir en el plagio de documentos y trabajos pues va en contra de la ética profesional.
8. Para el facilitador poder hacer cambios a las actividades del módulo o guía de estudio,
deberá ser aprobado por el Director de Facultad y Currículo antes de la primera clase.
Es requisito que el facilitador discuta y entregue una copia de los cambios a los
estudiantes al principio del primer taller.
9. El facilitador establecerá los medios para contactar a los estudiantes proveyendo su
correo electrónico de SUAGM, teléfonos, día y horario disponibles.
10. El uso de celulares está prohibido durante las sesiones de clase; de haber una necesidad,
deberá permanecer en vibración o en silencio.
11. La visita de niños y parientes no registrados en el curso no está permitida en el salón de
clases.

Filosofía y metodología educativa
Este curso está basado en la filosofía educativa del Constructivismo. El Constructivismo es una
filosofía de aprendizaje fundamentada en la premisa, de que, reflexionando a través de nuestras
experiencias, podemos construir nuestro propio entendimiento sobre el mundo en el que vivimos.
Cada uno de nosotros genera sus propias “reglas “y “modelos mentales” que utilizamos para
darle sentido a nuestras experiencias. Aprender, por lo tanto, es simplemente el proceso de
ajustar nuestros modelos mentales para poder entender nuevas experiencias.
Como facilitadores, nuestro enfoque es el de mantener una conexión entre los hechos con las
experiencias y fomentar un nuevo entendimiento en los estudiantes. También, intentamos
adaptar nuestras estrategias de enseñanza a las respuestas de nuestros estudiantes y motivar a los
mismos a analizar, interpretar, predecir información y aplicarla a la vida diaria.
PRINCIPIOS DEL CONSTRUCTIVISMO:
1. El aprendizaje es una búsqueda de significados. Por lo tanto, el aprendizaje debe comenzar
con situaciones en las cuales los estudiantes estén buscando activamente construir un
significado.
2. Para construir “un significado” se requiere comprender todas las partes: globales y
específicas (“from whole to parts”). Ambas partes deben entenderse en el contexto del todo.
Por lo tanto, el proceso de aprendizaje se enfoca en los conceptos primarios en contexto y no
en hechos aislados.
3. Para enseñar bien, debemos entender los modelos mentales que los estudiantes utilizan para
percibir el mundo y las presunciones que ellos hacen para apoyar dichos modelos.
EDUC 645 Introduction to School Counseling 15
Updated 05/28/2013
4. El propósito del aprendizaje, es para un individuo, el construir su propio significado, y no
sólo el de memorizar las respuestas “correctas” y repetir el significado de otra persona.
Como la educación es intrínsecamente interdisciplinaria, la única forma válida para asegurar
el aprendizaje es hacer de la evaluación parte esencial de dicho proceso, asegurando que el
mismo provea a los estudiantes con la información sobre la calidad de su aprendizaje.
5. La evaluación debe servir como una herramienta de auto-análisis.
6. Proveer herramientas y ambientes que ayuden a los estudiantes a interpretar las múltiples
perspectivas que existen en el mundo.
7. El aprendizaje debe ser controlado internamente y analizado por el estudiante.

Description of Course Policies
1. This course follows the Sistema Universitario Ana G. Méndez, Inc. Discipline-Based Dual
Language Immersion Model® designed to promote each student’s development as a dual
language professional. Workshops will be facilitated in either English or Spanish, strictly
using the 50/50 model. This means that each workshop will be conducted entirely in the
language specified for the workshop. The language used in each workshop needs to be
alternated to insure that 50% of the course is conducted in English and 50% in Spanish. To
maintain this balance, the course module will indicate that both languages must be used
during the fifth workshop, dividing the workshop activities between the two languages. The
first two hours will be in Spanish and the last two hours in English. The 50/50 model
does not apply to language courses where the delivery of instruction must be conducted in
the language taught (Spanish or English only).
2. The course is conducted in an accelerated and dual language format. This requires that
students prepare in advance for each workshop according to the course module. Students
must be structured, organized, committed, and focused to ensure linguistic and academic
success. In order to achieve proficiency expectations in English and in Spanish, the student
must strive to take advantage of all language resources in the university and in their
community since becoming a dual language professional is a complex and challenging task.
Each workshop requires an average of ten hours of preparation, but could require more.
EDUC 645 Introduction to School Counseling 23
Updated 05/28/2013
3. Attendance to all class sessions is mandatory. A student who is absent to a workshop must
present a reasonable excuse to the facilitator who in turn will evaluate the reason for the
absence. If it is justified, the facilitator will decide how the student will make up the missing
work, if applicable. The facilitator will decide on the following: allow the student to make up
the work, or allow the student to make up the work and assign extra work to compensate for
the missing class time.
Assignments required prior to the workshop must be completed and turned in on the assigned
date. The facilitator may decide to adjust the grade given for late assignments and/or make-
up work.
4. If a student is absent to more than one workshop, the facilitator will have the following
options:
a. If a student misses two workshops, the facilitator may lower one grade level
based on the student’s existing grade.
b. If the student misses three workshops, the facilitator may lower two grade levels
based on the student’s existing grade.
5. Student attendance and participation in oral presentations and special class activities are
extremely important as it is not possible to assure that they can be made up. If the student
provides a valid and verifiable excuse, the facilitator may determine a substitute evaluation
activity if he/she understands that an equivalent activity is possible. This activity must
include the same content and language components as the oral presentation or special activity
that was missed.
EDUC 645 Introduction to School Counseling 24
Updated 05/28/2013
6. In cooperative learning activities, the group will be assessed for their final work as a group.
However, each member will have to collaborate to assure the success of the group. Students
will also receive an individual grade for their work.
7. It is expected that all written work will be solely that of the student and should not be
plagiarized. That is, the student must be the author of all work submitted. All quoted or
paraphrased material must be properly cited, with credit given to its author or publisher. It
should be noted that plagiarized writings are easily detectable and students should not risk
losing credit for material that is clearly not their own. SafeAssignTM
, a Blackboard
plagiarism deterrent service, will be used by the facilitators to verify students’
ownership of written assignments. It is the student’s responsibility to read the university’s
plagiarism policy. If you are a UT student, read Section 11.1 of the Student Manual, and if

Teaching Philosophy and Methodology
The activities for the course reflect the educational philosophy of Constructivism.
Constructivism is an educational philosophy founded on the premise that, by reflecting on our
experiences, we construct our own understanding of the world in which we live.
Each of us generates our own “rules” and “mental models,” which we use to make sense of our
experiences. Learning, therefore, is simply the process of adjusting our mental models to
accommodate new experiences.
One of the main goals facilitators have is assisting students in making connections between their
prior knowledge of facts, and fostering new understanding that is relevant to real live
experiences. We will also attempt to tailor our teaching strategies to student responses and
encourage students to analyze, interpret, and predict information.
EDUC 645 Introduction to School Counseling 29
Updated 05/28/2013
CONSTRUCTIVISM GUIDING PRINCIPLES:
1. Learning is a search for meaning. Therefore, learning must start with the issues around which
students are actively trying to construct meaning.
2. Meaning requires understanding “wholes” as well as “parts”. The “parts” must be
understood in the context of “wholes”. Therefore, the learning process focuses on primary
concepts, not isolated facts.
3. In order to teach well, we must understand the mental models that students use to perceive
the world, and the assumptions they make to support those models.
4. The purpose of learning is for an individual to construct his or her own meaning, not just
memorize the "right" answers and regurgitate someone else's meaning. Since education is
inherently interdisciplinary, the only valuable way to measure learning is to make assessment
part of the learning process, thus ensuring that it provides students with information on the
quality of their learning.
5. Evaluation should serve as a self-analysis tool.
6. Provide tools and environments that help learners interpret the multiple perspectives of the
world.
7. Learning should be internally controlled and mediated by the learner.

or rather general. The writing is characterized by
• an easily identifiable purpose.
• clear main idea(s)
• supporting details that are relevant, but may be overly general or limited in places; when appropriate, resources are used to
provide accurate support.
• a topic that is explored/explained, although developmental details may occasionally be out of balance with the main idea(s);
some connections and insights may be present.
• content and selected details that are relevant, but perhaps not consistently well chosen for audience and purpose.
3
The reader can understand the main ideas, although they may be overly broad or simplistic, and the results may not be effective.
Supporting detail is often limited, insubstantial, overly general, or occasionally slightly off-topic. The writing is characterized by
• an easily identifiable purpose and main idea(s).
• predictable or overly-obvious main ideas or plot; conclusions or main points seem to echo observations heard elsewhere.
• support that is attempted; but developmental details that are often limited in scope, uneven, somewhat off-topic, predictable, or
overly general.

• a body that is easy to follow with details that fit where placed.
• transitions that may be stilted or formulaic.
• organization which helps the reader, despite some weaknesses.
3
An attempt has been made to organize the writing; however, the overall structure is inconsistent or skeletal. The
writing is characterized by
• attempts at sequencing, but the order or the relationship among ideas may occasionally be unclear.
• a beginning and an ending which, although present, are either undeveloped or too obvious (e.g. “My topic is...”,
“These are all the reasons that…”)
• transitions that sometimes work. The same few transitional devices (e.g., coordinating conjunctions, numbering,
etc.) may be overused.
• a structure that is skeletal or too rigid.
• placement of details that may not always be effective.
• organization which lapses in some places, but helps the reader in others.
2
The writing lacks a clear organizational structure. An occasional organizational device is discernible; however, the
writing is either difficult to follow and the reader has to reread substantial portions, or the piece is simply too short
to demonstrate organizational skills. The writing is characterized by
• some attempts at sequencing, but the order or the relationship among ideas is frequently unclear.
• a missing or extremely undeveloped beginning, body, and/or ending.
• a lack of transitions, or when present, ineffective or overused.
• a lack of an effective organizational structure.
• details that seem to be randomly placed, leaving the reader frequently confused.
1
The writing lacks coherence; organization seems haphazard and disjointed. Even after rereading, the reader remains
confused. The writing is characterized by
• a lack of effective sequencing.
• a failure to provide an identifiable beginning, body and/or ending.
• a lack of transitions.
• pacing that is consistently awkward; the reader feels either mired down in trivia or rushed along too rapidly.
• a lack of organization which ultimately obscures or distorts the main point. Source: Arizona Department of Education. AIMS Six Trait Analytic Writing Rubric. Retrieved from https://www.ade.state.az.us/standards/6traits/

Trait #3: Voice
Criteria per Level
6
The writer has chosen a voice appropriate for the topic, purpose and audience. The writer seems deeply committed to the topic,
and there is an exceptional sense of “writing to be read.” The writing is expressive, engaging, or sincere. The writing is
characterized by
• an effective level of closeness to or distance from the audience (e.g., a narrative should have a strong personal voice, while an
expository piece may require extensive use of outside resources and a more academic voice; nevertheless, both should be
engaging, lively, or interesting. Technical writing may require greater distance.).
• an exceptionally strong sense of audience; the writer seems to be aware of the reader and of how to communicate the message
most effectively. The reader may discern the writer behind the words and feel a sense of interaction.
• a sense that the topic has come to life; when appropriate, the writing may show originality, liveliness, honesty, conviction,
excitement, humor, or suspense.

4
A voice is present. The writer demonstrates commitment to the topic, and there may be a sense of “writing to be read.” In places,
the writing is expressive, engaging, or sincere. The writing is characterized by
• a questionable or inconsistent level of closeness to or distance from the audience.
• a sense of audience; the writer seems to be aware of the reader but has not consistently employed an appropriate voice. The
reader may glimpse the writer behind the words and feel a sense of interaction in places.
• liveliness, sincerity, or humor when appropriate; however, at times the writing may be either inappropriately casual or personal,
or inappropriately formal and stiff.
3
The writer’s commitment to the topic seems inconsistent. A sense of the writer may emerge at times; however, the voice is either
inappropriately personal or inappropriately impersonal. The writing is characterized by
• a limited sense of audience; the writer’s awareness of the reader is unclear.
• an occasional sense of the writer behind the words; however, the voice may shift or disappear a line or two later and the writing
become somewhat mechanical.
• a limited ability to shift to a more objective voice when necessary.
2
The writing provides little sense of involvement or commitment. There is no evidence that the writer has chosen a suitable voice.
The writing is characterized by
• little engagement of the writer; the writing tends to be largely flat, lifeless, stiff, or mechanical.
• a voice that is likely to be overly informal and personal.
• a lack of audience awareness; there is little sense of "writing to be read."
• little or no hint of the writer behind the words. There is rarely a sense of interaction between reader and writer.

Trait #4: Word Choice
Criteria per Level
6
Words convey the intended message in an exceptionally interesting, precise, and natural way appropriate to
audience and purpose. The writer employs a rich, broad range of words, which have been carefully chosen and
thoughtfully placed for impact. The writing is characterized by
• accurate, strong, specific words; powerful words energize the writing.
• fresh, original expression; slang, if used, seems purposeful and is effective.
• vocabulary that is striking and varied, but that is natural and not overdone.
• ordinary words used in an unusual way.
• words that evoke strong images; figurative language may be used.

• ordinary words used in an unusual way.
• words that evoke clear images; figurative language may be used
4
Words effectively convey the intended message. The writer employs a variety of words that are functional and
appropriate to audience and purpose. The writing is characterized by
• words that work but do not particularly energize the writing.
• expression that is functional; however, slang, if used, does not seem purposeful and is not particularly effective.
• attempts at colorful language that may occasionally seem overdone.
• occasional overuse of technical language or jargon.
• rare experiments with language; however, the writing may have some fine moments and generally avoids clichés.
3
Language is quite ordinary, lacking interest, precision and variety, or may be inappropriate to audience and
purpose in places. The writer does not employ a variety of words, producing a sort of “generic” paper filled with
familiar words and phrases. The writing is characterized by
• words that work, but that rarely capture the reader’s interest.
• expression that seems mundane and general; slang, if used, does not seem purposeful and is not effective.
• attempts at colorful language that seem overdone or forced.
• words that are accurate for the most part, although misused words may occasionally appear, technical language
or jargon may be overused or inappropriately used.
• reliance on clichés and overused expressions.
2
Language is monotonous and/or misused, detracting from the meaning and impact. The writing is characterized by
• words that are colorless, flat or imprecise.
• monotonous repetition or overwhelming reliance on worn expressions that repeatedly distract from the message.
• images that are fuzzy or absent altogether.
1
The writing shows an extremely limited vocabulary or is so filled with misuses of words that the meaning is
obscured. Only the most general kind of message is communicated because of vague or imprecise language. The
writing is characterized by
• general, vague words that fail to communicate.
• an extremely limited range of words.
• words that simply do not fit the text; they seem imprecise, inadequate, or just plain wrong. Source: Arizona Department of Education. AIMS Six Trait Analytic Writing Rubric. Retrieved from https://www.ade.state.az.us/standards/6traits/

Trait #5: Sentence Fluency
Criteria per Level
6
The writing has an effective flow and rhythm. Sentences show a high degree of craftsmanship, with consistently
strong and varied structure that makes expressive oral reading easy and enjoyable. The writing is characterized by
• a natural, fluent sound; it glides along with one sentence flowing effortlessly into the next.
• extensive variation in sentence structure, length, and beginnings that add interest to the text.
• sentence structure that enhances meaning by drawing attention to key ideas or reinforcing relationships among
ideas.
• varied sentence patterns that create an effective combination of power and grace.
• strong control over sentence structure; fragments, if used at all, work well.
• stylistic control; dialogue, if used, sounds natural.

4
The writing flows; however, connections between phrases or sentences may be less than fluid. Sentence patterns
are somewhat varied, contributing to ease in oral reading. The writing is characterized by
• a natural sound; the reader can move easily through the piece, although it may lack a certain rhythm and grace.
• some repeated patterns of sentence structure, length, and beginnings that may detract somewhat from overall
impact.
• strong control over simple sentence structures, but variable control over more complex sentences; fragments, if
present, are usually effective.
• occasional lapses in stylistic control; dialogue, if used, sounds natural for the most part, but may at times sound
stilted or unnatural.
3
The writing tends to be mechanical rather than fluid. Occasional awkward constructions may force the reader to
slow down or reread. The writing is characterized by
• some passages that invite fluid oral reading; however, others do not.
• some variety in sentences structure, length, and beginnings, although the writer falls into repetitive sentence
patterns.
• good control over simple sentence structures, but little control over more complex sentences; fragments, if
present, may not be effective.
• sentences which, although functional, lack energy.
• lapses in stylistic control; dialogue, if used, may sound stilted or unnatural.
2
The writing tends to be either choppy or rambling. Awkward constructions often force the reader to slow down or
reread. The writing is characterized by
• significant portions of the text that are difficult to follow or read aloud.
• sentence patterns that are monotonous (e.g., subject-verb or subject-verb-object).
• a significant number of awkward, choppy, or rambling constructions.
1
The writing is difficult to follow or to read aloud. Sentences tend to be incomplete, rambling, or very awkward.
The writing is characterized by
• text that does not invite—and may not even permit—smooth oral reading.
• confusing word order that is often jarring and irregular.
• sentence structure that frequently obscures meaning.
• sentences that are disjointed, confusing, or rambling. Source: Arizona Department of Education. AIMS Six Trait Analytic Writing Rubric. Retrieved from https://www.ade.state.az.us/standards/6traits/

Trait #6: Conventions
Criteria per Level
6
The writing demonstrates exceptionally strong control of standard writing conventions (e.g., punctuation, spelling, capitalization,
paragraph breaks, grammar and usage) and uses them effectively to enhance communication. Errors are so few and so minor that the reader can easily skim right over them unless specifically searching for them. The writing is characterized by
• strong control of conventions; manipulation of conventions may occur for stylistic effect.
• strong, effective use of punctuation that guides the reader through the text. • correct spelling, even of more difficult words.
• paragraph breaks that reinforce the organizational structure.
• correct grammar and usage that contribute to clarity and style. • skill in using a wide range of conventions in a sufficiently long and complex piece.
• little or no need for editing.

• little need for editing.
4
The writing demonstrates control of standard writing conventions (e.g., punctuation, spelling, capitalization, paragraph breaks, grammar
and usage). Minor errors, while perhaps noticeable, do not impede readability. The writing is characterized by
• control over conventions used, although a wide range is not demonstrated. • correct end-of-sentence punctuation, internal punctuation may sometimes be incorrect.
• spelling that is usually correct, especially on common words.
• basically sound paragraph breaks that reinforce the organizational structure. • correct capitalization; errors, if any, are minor.
• occasional lapses in correct grammar and usage; problems are not severe enough to distort meaning or confuse the reader.
• moderate need for editing.
3
The writing demonstrates limited control of standard writing conventions (e.g., punctuation, spelling, capitalization, paragraph breaks,
grammar and usage). Errors begin to impede readability. The writing is characterized by
• some control over basic conventions; the text may be too simple to reveal mastery. • end-of-sentence punctuation that is usually correct; however, internal punctuation contains frequent errors.
• spelling errors that distract the reader; misspelling of common words occurs.
• paragraphs that sometimes run together or begin at ineffective places. • capitalization errors.
• errors in grammar and usage that do not block meaning but do distract the reader.
• significant need for editing.
2
The writing demonstrates little control of standard writing conventions. Frequent, significant errors impede readability. The writing is characterized by
• little control over basic conventions.
• many end-of-sentence punctuation errors; internal punctuation contains frequent errors. • spelling errors that frequently distract the reader; misspelling of common words often occurs.
• paragraphs that often run together or begin in ineffective places.
• capitalization that is inconsistent or often incorrect. • errors in grammar and usage that interfere with readability and meaning.
• substantial need for editing.
1
Numerous errors in usage, spelling, capitalization, and punctuation repeatedly distract the reader and make the text difficult to read. In fact, the severity and frequency of errors are so overwhelming that the reader finds it difficult to focus on the message and must reread for
meaning. The writing is characterized by
• very limited skill in using conventions.
• basic punctuation (including end-of-sentence punctuation) that tends to be omitted, haphazard, or incorrect.
• frequent spelling errors that significantly impair readability.
• paragraph breaks that may be highly irregular or so frequent (every sentence) that they bear no relation to the organization of the text. • capitalization that appears to be random.
• a need for extensive editing. Source: Arizona Department of Education. AIMS Six Trait Analytic Writing Rubric. Retrieved from https://www.ade.state.az.us/standards/6traits/

PARAGRAPH CONSTRUCTION RUBRIC
*What are transitions words and how they are used in effective writing? Transition words are: phrases or words used to connect one idea to the next; used by the writer to help the reader
progress from one significant idea to the next; show the relationship within a paragraph (or within a sentence) between the main idea and the support the writer gives for those ideas; different
transition words do different things.... (https://www.msu.edu/user/jdowell/135/transw.html).

Language Lab and E-Lab Information
The Language Lab and E-Lab are designed to help students strengthen their linguistic skills in English
and Spanish and to fulfill the content objectives of the course. Both labs count with a wide variety of
visual and auditory on-line exercises, Internet-based research, and guided writing activities, that allow
students to improve their skills in listening and reading comprehension, pronunciation, vocabulary
building, grammar, and writing.
The Language Lab also includes a package of 140 carefully selected English for Speakers of Other
Languages (ESOL) Web sites, as well as other Spanish Web pages to meet the students’ needs.
Additionally, the Language Lab and E-Lab have other software to boost language and academic content
learning such as Tell Me More, NetTutor, and Wimba Voice.
Tell Me More is an effective system for English and Spanish learning that allows students to strengthen
their skills and fulfill the language lab hours required in each class. Students must have Internet
connection, Internet Explorer browser, and access to Blackboard to be able to use this program.
The system will initially assess students’ knowledge and create a learning path specifically tailored to
each student’s needs, thus allowing facilitators to measure every student’s progress. Students will be able
to improve pronunciation, grammar and listening skills from beginner to advanced levels with two
different profiles: everyday language and business oriented language.
NetTutor is an online tutoring service, which provides live tutoring for numerical and computer classes
(scheduled hours apply). For those classes which do not have live tutoring, students can post questions
and they will be answered within 72 hours. The system also has a “Frequently Asked Questions” section
available 24/7. NetTutor can be accessed remotely with an Internet connection. This service offers
tutoring for the following subjects:
English (available for all courses)
Spanish (available for all courses)
