Reseña

The General Baccalaureate is founded on constructivism, humanism, connectivism, and cognitivism. It is based on a student-centered teaching and learning process, utilizing a face-to-face model with components of distance education, characterized by its hybrid and flexible nature. It develops citizens with knowledge, skills, and attitudes who are aware and critical, capable of engaging responsibly with social, environmental, economic, and political issues; participants in the practice of solidarity and sisterhood; and possessing the capacity to apply scientific and technological knowledge to influence the resolution of local, national, and global problems with responsibility and social engagement.

To understand the development of the University of Guadalajara's General Baccalaureate, as outlined in its curriculum, it is necessary to address the expected profile of each student and identify the characteristics that make it an education that exceeds national expectations for upper secondary school graduates.

English Level 2 introduces each student to the elements and information necessary to express aspects related to themselves, their environment, and the people around them in a foreign language. To this end, each student develops the four basic skills: writing, speaking, reading, and listening.

Each student will acquire the basic skills defined by the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) at level A1. This level is expected to be achieved by the end of the third semester of high school. This implies that each student will be able to understand and use frequently used everyday expressions, introduce themselves and others, provide personal information, and maintain basic interactions.

The course is divided into four learning modules, which develop essential communicative functions, grammar, and vocabulary so that each student can communicate effectively and improve their language proficiency.

The English Level 2 course contributes significantly to the graduate profile by developing each student's ability to express themselves orally and in writing in a foreign language using a variety of media. This promotes a respectful and tolerant approach toward people from different social, cultural, and professional backgrounds.
Furthermore, it fosters in each student the desire to communicate in a disciplined and honest manner in another language, which provides them with access to ideologies, customs, traditions, and cultures different from their own, allowing them to understand, understand, and respect cultural diversity.
