WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE?

As our 4 week-period is coming to an end, we in SAT & SET would like to know what different items in English learning (more grammar, more writing, more vocab) you saw that you might need improvement in, what topics you'd like to take a look at, what things you saw that you liked that you'd like to do again or review.

As you can imagine I'd like to know what you would like to do this upcoming month of November and figure out a great program for the next 4 to 6 weeks.

Thanks a lot beforehand for your participation in the blog. Don't forget to comment.

MINING 2: RARE EARTHS

The second part of the mining week in ACCIONA's COLECTIVO CRÍTICO will relate mainly on RARE EARTH and its value in today's world. The methodology for this part of the course, will be more active, since you will have to look up the videos and articles we've chosen for you and comment about them in class with your instructor.

See if you can add anything to it and bring it to class. Any thing, an article, a video, a radio excerpt. Whatever you find interesting from the web.

You can check for these reference websites and videos over here:
