The Center for Language Development Across the Disciplines wishes to weIcome you to our
program and to the new academic semester. Our program's objective is to promote effective oral
and written skilIs in both English and Spanish. The LAD professors along with your class
professor have designed activities in both English and Spanish directed to strengthen your
linguistic skills by using reallife situations within the context of the LAD course. With the help
ofthe LAD professors and mentors, you will also have the opportunity to receive individual
assistance to strengthen your language skilIs. These activities wiII help you to be better prepared
to confront the professional worId.
1. Each student should have a copy ofthe class activity. It should contain clear written
instructions, and you should be informed on how you will be evaluated. We will
personaI1y give you a copy of our LAD rubrics.
2. you will be required to make an oral presentation usng visuals Iike power point and
hand in a written document for both the Spanish and English activities.
3. As part ofthe program you are expected to visit our offices to practice your oral presentation,
and have your power point corrected. Appointments must be made to avoid overlapping
schedules with other students. If you do not pre-record your presentation, your project grade
will be affected: points wiIJ be taken off. Please keep in mind that the power point and the
pre-recording can not be programmed for the same day. Our telephone number is (787) 7281515 ext. 2294. Make sure to cancel your appointment ifyou can not attend.
4. Your written work must be handed in for correction. Drafts should be taken to LAD
several days before the presentation or sent by e-mail to the foI1owing electronic address:
lad@sagrado.edu.Ifyou add information after your work has been corrected, we
recommend you hand it in once again to be rechecked. If you do not, we are not
responsible for mistakes on the final copy. The written work must be handed at least three
(3) class days before the final presentation date; otherwise, it wiII not n=be accepted. We
need time to correcto Make sure you pick up your corrected copy before handing in your
final document.
5. Don't be absent the day ofthe oral presentation. There wiII be no make-ups.
6. There should be no reading during the presentations. The power point will serve as a prop.
7. The day ofthe oral presentation, two final copies ofthe written work should be
handed in (one for LAD and one for the professor).
8. The work should be written as follows:
Quotes and references - APA style
O
Double space
o
FolIowing an academic writing style
O
O
Font size - 12
9.
lO.
11.
12.
13.
Work that has been plagiarized or translated electronically will not be corrected, and will
be penalized. We do not translate work.
Remember that you must go to LAD. It is easy to detect who has come to LAD to
rehearse, and who has not.
Each professor will receive a monthly attendance sheet with the names ofthe students
who come to practice or hand in their drafts. Remember that this is part ofthe project
grade.
On the LAD Web page under Instructional Materials, you wiII find over 10 workshops
that can help you with your presentations and in your other clsses.
Our location is behind the lobby of Barat Sur facing the interior courtyard of Barat Norte.
The office number is BN 223.
