  • To promote the use of the English language in a cultural context where the language is used as a first language.
  • To facilitate the identification and analysis of the cultural aspect of the English language in situ.
  • To experience the cultural environment in an English speaking country.

This fieldwork took place in the University of Southampton from the 25th of April to the 5th of May 2009. As a result of this work students produced three reports:

  • Living experiences in an English speaking country. places visited and cultural activities carried out (maximum 2000 words)
  • List of new vocabulary and phrases encountered during the fieldwork (20 minimum)
  • A topic selected by students on of one of the places visited (1000 words).

    Students will present their fieldwork experiences in the Forum: “Culture and the use of English” this summer as part of the activities to celebrate the anniversary of Campus Cozumel.
