BASIS: UANL’s Upper Intermediate Education level (DENMS) is known for establishing an interrelationship between the Upper Intermediate Educational Reform and the Upper Intermediate Educational and Academic Models. These provide a comprehensive education that will contribute to the needs and requirements of the Country’s current situation as well as develop the proper knowledge for international success. Thus, the development of a foreign language is deemed necessary in order to enhance additional skills such as technology. This is how students are expected to easily adapt to different cultures, given that language learning carries with it knowledge of its culture, in which it will be used for academic and professional purposes. This Learning Unit Progressive English I is located within the disciplinary field of Communication and Language, which is part of the Progressive Bilingual Baccalaureate program. Within this disciplinary field communication skills in a second language are developed, an important skill given that it contributes to UANL’s goal regarding internationalization. It also covers one of the disciplinary competencies established by its field: communication in a foreign language; it also provides knowledge on a foreign culture that will help the student cope linguistically and culturally. The purpose of this Learning Unit is to provide linguistic knowledge so students can communicate effectively in written and spoken English in basic situations and everyday environments presented by international cultural contexts. The latter is directly related to the intention of having students be capable of coping outside the Country in academic and professional terms. It is also stated in the program for Progressive Bilingual Baccalaureate that graduates should be able to face current challenges and adapt to the necessities of globalization by communicating effectively in a foreign language - in English- therefore having better opportunities. The Academic Model is focused towards guiding academic planning, operation and evaluation of the educational model. It is a schematic setup and a simplified representation of reality. The Learning Unit Progressive English III actively contributes to the development of the established competencies for the disciplinary field to which they belong, through the activities that are part of the study program as well as text and support materials. It is worth mentioning that self-learning and leadership are developed Biblioteca Universitaria “Raúl Rangel Frías”, 4º piso Av.
