PRESENTAZION

Contenuto e impostazione
Travels & Trips è un nuovo corso di inglese destinato agli studenti che frequentano il secondo biennio e il
quinto anno delle scuole secondarie superiori, indirizzo Turismo.
Il testo, pensato seguendo le linee guida ministeriali, si sviluppa attraverso attività che simulano situazioni
professionali reali per permettere agli studenti di acquisire sia competenze chiave professionali sia
competenze comunicative.
Travels & Trips è strutturato in cinque parti suddivise in unità, a loro volta costituite da lezioni in numero
variabile.
Al termine delle unità delle prime tre parti sono collocate le pagine di ripasso lessicale e grammaticale
(Grammar Practice), un test di autovalutazione (Test Yourself) e indicazioni per la realizzazione di un compito di
realtà (Real Life Task).
La parte 4, Working in Tourism, oltre a presentare i principali profili professionali del settore, offre esempi
su come scrivere un curriculum vitae e una lettera di presentazione, e su come affrontare un colloquio di
lavoro. Il compito di realtà a fine parte propone la stesura di un resumé della propria esperienza di lavoro in
preparazione all’Esame di Stato.
La parte 5, Written Communication, è una raccolta di modelli compositivi che aiutano lo studente a sviluppare
l’abilità nello scrivere email e lettere chiare ed efficaci riguardanti questo specifico settore lavorativo.
L’Appendice del volume include: una sezione CLIL, che approfondisce la conoscenza di alcuni aspetti culturali
legati all’attività professionale; pagine di ripasso guidato degli argomenti chiave trattati nel volume; e infine
due prove per l’Esame di Stato scritto costituite da 4 testi.

Caratteristiche del corso
•   Inclusione Il testo presta una costante attenzione alla didattica inclusiva (   didattica inclusiva ), con attività

    che agevolano l’acquisizione dei contenuti tecnici (Study Help), mappe di ricapitolazione che riassumono e
    schematizzano visivamente i contenuti principali, e con la presentazione del lessico attraverso immagini.
•   Motivazione Nel corso sono presenti numerose attività pratiche di collegamento con il mondo reale della
    professione come le proposte per la realizzazione di compiti di realtà (Real Life Task) e di itinerari (Itinerary),
    che hanno l’obiettivo di aiutare lo studente a realizzare autonomamente itinerari e pacchetti turistici.
•   Efficacia Le attività proposte sviluppano tutte le skills (reading, listening, speaking e writing), proponendo
    anche esercizi strutturati sul format della certificazione FCE.
•   Rinforzo linguistico e grammaticale L’acquisizione e il rinforzo del lessico (con attività che stimolano lo
    studente a costruire un proprio glossario personale) e della grammatica sono elementi sempre sollecitati
    nel testo.
