3. OBSERVACIONES GENERALES
El curso de Ingls Bsico est dirigido a estudiantes de diferentes carreras de la
UNED, que requieran aprender el uso instrumental del ingls para la comprensin
de textos escritos. Por ello, las lecturas que se evaluarn responden a los distintos
campos profesionales y no a los contenidos temticos del libro. Esto permitir entrar
en contacto con una mayor variedad de textos y niveles de dificultad.
Por su naturaleza terico prctica, este curso sigue una metodologa a distancia,
bajo la cual se estudian individualmente los materiales didcticos del curso y se
realizan los ejercicios de auto evaluacin que aparecen en el material, los cuales estn
acompaados de las respectivas respuestas para su verificacin.
El material didctico de este curso est en ingls, para ofrecerle al estudiante un
contacto real con la lengua. Junto con el libro de trabajo (Well Read 1: Skills and
Strategies for Reading from Laurie Blass), se brindar una gua de estudio, la
cual complementa el texto y ampla los conceptos tericos, por medio de
explicaciones y ejemplos en espaol.
A la vez, se ofrecern tutoras presenciales no obligatorias en los centros
universitarios donde la matrcula lo permita. En stas se discutir lo ledo para cada

More than 200,000 Syrians have lost their lives in four years of armed conflict,
which began with anti-government protests before escalating into a full-scale
civil war. More than 11 million others have been forced from their homes as
forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad and those opposed to his rule battle
each other - as well as jihadist militants from Islamic State. This is the story of
the civil war so far. The armed rebellion has evolved significantly since its
inception. Secular moderates are now outnumbered by Islamists and jihadists.

A. Read the following text Distance Learning Degree: A quick guide very carefully.
Distance Learning Degree: A quick guide
Starting from correspondence education courses in the 1930s, distance learning has
evolved into the dynamic and technology-driven world of online education cited by
many as the answer to time constraints, financial barriers and other obstacles to
accessing education. In the past few years the distance education market has
gained new attention thanks to the hype surrounding massive open online courses
(MOOCs), while recent Google data suggests that many online education providers
now attract more online searches than long-established traditional campus
universities.
What is distance learning?
Distance learning does exactly what it says on the packet; it allows students to
learn while in a different location to the course provider, often studying from home
and most likely via computer. The added freedoms of this approach are clear.
Distance education opens up a large range of programs to students who would
struggle to attend lectures and seminars face-to-face due to responsibilities or
time constraints, such as parents or full- and part-time workers. Students are able
to work in their own time, often at their own pace, with all the resources they need
available via the internet or as downloadable materials. Theres no geographic
constraint either. Students and teachers can be separated by time zones and
continents without this affecting the structure or efficiency of the program.
Prospective students with ambitions of studying at prestigious universities
elsewhere in the world can do so without having to move thousands of miles away
from home, leave friends and family behind or give up their jobs.
