Learning outcomes:

A student possesses knowledge regarding the aforementioned issues.
Assessment methods and assessment criteria:

The oral exam is based on giving correct and exhaustive answer on three randomly assigned exam questions. Three correct answers equals the best possible grade, with two correct answers - the second best grade, with one - satisfactory.

With three correct answers it is possible to draw an additional question to get an excellent mark (5!).

There is a possibility of conducting a half-examination, in which the student answers two randomized examination questions, which would cover 2/3 of the material.

The lecturer may consider an excellent class participation at the seminar as a factor increasing the grade of the oral exam.

Pluricentrismo da Língua Portuguesa e o pluralismo cultural dos países lusófonos:

O objetivo das aulas é evidenciar aos alunos uma certa unidade na grande diversidade linguística e cultural dos países de língua portuguesa. O programa propõe aos estudantes um vasto leque de temas que permitem compreender em que consiste o valor fundamental da Língua Portuguesa, quer dizer, o seu policentrismo (linguístico e cultural), assim como a sua enorme riqueza de variedades.
Full description:

A Língua Portuguesa é pluricontinental e policêntrica, falada por 260 milhões de pessoas. Projeta-se em quatro continentes do nosso planeta e realiza-se em múltiplas variedades linguísticas. Como língua pluricêntrica não tem uma norma-padrão, nem possui o seu “centro”, porque todas as variantes dispõem de igual valor. Pode-se dizer que é uma língua dos portugueses, brasileiros, angolanos, moçambicanos, cabo-verdianos, guineenses, são-tomenses, ou timorenses - sociedades que vivem nas realidades sociais, linguísticas e culturais bem distintas.

Tendo em conta estas características da Língua Portuguesa, o objetivo das aulas é evidenciar aos alunos uma certa unidade na grande diversidade linguística e cultural dos países de língua portuguesa. O programa propõe aos estudantes um vasto leque de temas que permitem compreender em que consiste o valor fundamental da Língua Portuguesa, quer dizer, o seu policentrismo (linguístico e cultural), assim como a sua enorme riqueza de variedades.
