This document contains a student's portfolio for the subject "Phonology II" at the Universidad Técnica de Ambato in Ecuador. The portfolio includes the course syllabus, which outlines 5 units covering basic concepts in morphology, patterns of word formation, lexical derivation, applying morphological structures, and examples of morphological problems in English classes. It also provides evidence of learning for each element, a final reflection, and rubric. The portfolio aims to demonstrate the student's knowledge and skills developed throughout the semester-long course in Phonology II.

Personal Learning Goals
As you know English is a universal language. English is a very important tool in
different aspects. I am studying English because there are three reasons for me: first I
like English because I think that if I learn very well English maybe I could travel to
different countries and learn more about English. Second, I think that English becomes
globalized and is very necessary to communicate around the world, at many countries.
Finally, I want to be an excellent teacher and share all my knowledge to my students.
In this module I will learn a lot of things that will help me to improve my English
skills, for example I will learn a little more about morphology and other things that are
very useful for me. Also, it will help me to improve my grades in my other subjects like
reading, integrated skills, audio, oral. Thanks to this module I will know more about
English because we are going to work with different linguistics’ book. Moreover, I
think that this module is the most important in the career because it contains teams very
essential when we are learning English.
In conclusion, through hard work, dedication, and intelligence, my goals are
accessible to be accomplished. With this in mind, the completed goals will lead to a
series of positive effects in my life. One effect is that at the end of the semester my
English skills will have improved and I will be ready to move on to the next semester.
Also, with polished literary skills

III. COURSE DESCRIPTION AND OBJECTIVES
Purpose
The aim of the course is to introduce students to the word formation of English.
That knowledge will let them make teaching desicions when planning, organizing
and evalauating the English Teaching and Learning process.
Course Description: (Abstract)
The course will aim to develop phonological knowledge and strategies in order to
use them when learning and teaching English.
This course will develop 5 main elements during the semester. First, students will
identify basic concepts of L2 related to morphology subject. Then, they will
understand different patterns of word formation. After that, students will be
aware of the lexical derivation, mainly the origin of words. They will also analyze
the language by applying morphological structures. Finally, students will predict
examples about possible morphological problems presented in L2.
The methodology that will be applied in the development of the module is Kolb´s
strategies and basically ABP, and English methodology as cognitive and meta-
cognitive strategies which may help students develop an independent learning.
Some of the evaluation instruments such a mind maps, charts, oral presentations
will be applied in order to get critical thinking and students´ own conclusion
according to each topic.
This course will contribute with the development of accuracy of language, in
other words, the correct use of words in context depending on the origin of word
and the different uses of the lexis.
Course General Objective:
Make use of linguistic elements, psychological processes, and the sociocultural
aspects in order to apply them in the teaching-learning process in an effective
way
Course Specific Objectives :
1. Identify basic concepts of L2 related to morphophonemic subject.
2. Compare different patterns of word formation and their pronunciation.
3. Analyze the lexical derivation, mainly the origin of words.
4. Investigate the language by applying morphological structures.
5. Provide their own examples about possible morphological problems presented
in L2

In Ecuador the native language is Spanish. The second language is English. As we
now this language is the second most spoken language worldwide. In Ecuador students
have English’s class from school to university, but in the school and the high school
students just learn grammar and vocabulary but it is not enough to learn to perfection the
English language because they don’t know something about morphology, that I think it is a
subject very important in the moment that students are learning for many reasons.
Morphology is commonly defined as the study of the internal structure of words and
the rules governing the formation of words in a language. It is once again part of our
grammatical knowledge of a language, and like linguistic knowledge it is generally
unconscious knowledge. Students of English need to establish a sound knowledge base in
understanding the structure of words and word formation processes. Developing an
awareness of English morphology will enable language teachers to help their learners
understand how words enter a language, what they consist of and how they are formed by
combining prefixes, suffixes, and roots.
In conclusion, I could say that Morphology can be a valuable instructional tool for
students to develop and use vocabulary creatively. Furthermore, we can find new topics
that are really interesting, for example how English to come changing over time.

FINAL REFLEXION
In Ecuador the native language is Spanish. The second language is English. As we
now this language is the second most spoken language worldwide. In Ecuador students
have English’s class from school to university, but in the school and the high school
students just grammar and vocabulary but it is not enough to learn to perfection the English
language because they have some problems with the structure of words or something like
that. Ecuador is a small town where learn English isn’t very important in some school or
high school teachers teach correctly the pronunciation. In the university for example in my
case I think that we like a students, we have to get more hours of phonology II because this
module teaching the correct pronunciation and other things that are very important in the
educative field.
In this semester I learned a lot of about Linguistics. I think that learn linguistics or
to be more specific learn Morphology is very important to me because, thanks to phonology
II as a student can learn more about the English. For instance, I identified basic concepts
related to morphology subject. Also, I understood different patterns of word formation.
Also, I was aware of the lexical derivation, mainly the origin of words. I learned to analyze
the language by applying morphological structures. Finally, I predicted examples about
different topics that I saw in this semester. Also I think that the phonology II is the better
way to learn English because it has different fields and branches that these can help to
analyze and understand
