On-line teaching sessions will be carried out with the support of the following distance learning tools: MICROSOFT TEAMS (is the basic tool for interactive sessions), USOS will provide the students with extra instructions, mini-lectures, comments and feedback, by means of e-mails and attachments sent to particular groups. MOODLE MAY be employed OCASSIONALLY for collecting assignments (essays and worksheets) and examination tests (but ONLY if the Microsoft Teams platform turns out to be insufficient). All distance learning sessions will be carried out according to the following format: (1) TEACHER-CENTERED INPUT (20-30 minutes) by means of the teacher’s introductory mini-lecture on a particular area in question (2) STUDENT-CENTERED PROBLEM-SOLVING ACTIVITIES (30-40 minutes) regarding particular tasks (information search, negotiation of solutions, preferably pair-work and team-work (peer-teaching) (3) FEEDBACK AND INTERACTION via such techniques and Q&A (questions and answer sessions) based on collective lists of questions, individual questions and discussions. The above methods are amendable according to any changes in the ongoing situation and relevant regulations.
