The European language 2 MA course comes under the core educational activities of the MA course in Modern Languages for International Communication and, specifically, among the founding and cross-curricular activities aimed at deepening knowledge and competences in both the linguistic, cultural and textual heritage of the languages studied. The course aims at strengthening the linguistic, sociolinguistic, metalinguistic and pragmatic competences in the language object of study in international communication contexts with the achievement of the C1+ level in all receptive and productive skills.
Specifically, the following will be strengthened:
a) ability to interact in the foreign language also within specialist contexts;
b) ability to analyse written, spoken and multimedia genres and text typologies within general and specialised language use;
c) ability to use mediation and translation strategies in spoken and written communication;
c.1) analysis, translation and production of short texts belonging to different textual genres and produced in a number of specialised sectors (workshop);
d) application of acquired knowledge to different textual typologies;
e) (spoken and written) mediation competences within multilingual and multicultural interaction contexts;
f) knowledge and use of information technology tools for corpora analysis (written, spoken and multimedia texts) in specific research contexts;
g) capacity of planning brief research studies, also on the language teaching methodology of the language/s studied;
g.1) development of research, also on the language teaching methodology of the language studied (workshop).
Expected learning results: students will have knowledge and competences at a C1+ level in the language studied; they will have linguistic, sociolinguistic, metalinguistic and pragmatic competences in the language object of study in international communication contexts; they will be able to interact in the foreign language also in specialist contexts; to analyse written, spoken and multimedia genres and textual typologies; to understand mediation and translation processes; they will have competences of mediation in multilingual and multicultural interaction contexts, of planning short research studies of the language studied; they will know (and be able to use) the information and technology tools for corpora analysis.

teacher profile teaching materials
By the end of the course, students will have refined their linguistic-communicative skills in the two varieties (PE and PB).
These knowledge and skills will be acquired through regular participation in lectures and other supplementary teaching activities.

Programme
The course aims to analyse the textual and linguistic characteristics of web-mediated hybrid textual genres for scientific or semi-scientific (semi-)popularisation and to provide students with adequate tools to be able to subtitle high and medium specialised audiovisual texts (technical-translational competence) and to critically reflect on the PB LSP, especially the monitored academic speech variety.By the end of the course, students will have refined their linguistic-communicative skills in the two varieties (PE and PB).
These knowledge and skills will be acquired through regular participation in lectures and other supplementary teaching activities.

Type of delivery of the course
Lectures will alternate with workshop-based lessons, including in-class subtitling exercises and project work. There will be homework, which students will have to bring to class for collective correction.Attendance
80% attendance is required; students who cannot achieve 80% attendance will have to agree on additions to the programme.Type of evaluation
At the end of the course, the student will have to present a project work: each student will choose a short video (about 5-10 minutes long) and, using the software used during the course, will produce an Italian subtitle. The video, although chosen by the student, must receive prior approval from the teacher. The video and the subtitle file will be handed over to the teacher during the exam, unless otherwise communicated by the teacher. During the exam, which is held in oral form, the student will discuss the subtitling and defend the translation choices made (as regards both the lexical choices and the segmentation/spotting methods), referring to the instructions received, the specific technical constraints of subtitling, the lexical research and the strategies applied during the course.
