Descripción de las Normas del Curso
1. Este curso sigue el programa “Discipline-Based Dual-Language Model®” del
Sistema Universitario Ana G. Méndez, el mismo esta diseñado para promover el
desarrollo de cada estudiante como un profesional bilingüe. Cada taller será
facilitado en inglés y español, utilizando el modelo 50/50. Esto significa que cada
taller deberá ser conducido enteramente en el lenguaje especificado. Los
lenguajes serán alternados en cada taller para asegurar que el curso se ofrece
FINA 630/FINA 740 Investments 6
Prep. 2008. José Martinez, CPA EPM
50% en inglés y 50% en español. Para mantener un balance, el modulo debe
especificar que se utilizaran ambos idiomas en el quinto taller, dividiendo el
tiempo y las actividades equitativamente entre ambos idiomas. Si un estudiante
tiene dificultad en hacer una pregunta en el idioma especificado, bien puede
escoger el idioma de preferencia para hacer la pregunta. Sin embargo, el
facilitador deberá contestar la misma en el idioma designado para ese taller.
Esto deberá ser una excepción a las reglas pues es importante que los
estudiantes utilicen el idioma designado. Esto no aplica a los cursos de lenguaje
que deben ser desarrollados en el idioma propio todo en ingles o todo en
español según aplique.
2. El curso es conducido en formato acelerado, eso requiere que los estudiantes se
preparen antes de cada taller de acuerdo al módulo. Cada taller requiere un
promedio de diez (10) horas de preparación y en ocasiones requiere más.
3. La asistencia a todos los talleres es obligatoria. El estudiante que se ausente al
taller deberá presentar una excusa razonable al facilitador. El facilitador
evaluará si la ausencia es justificada y decidirá como el estudiante repondrá el
trabajo perdido, de ser necesario. El facilitador decidirá uno de los siguientes:
permitirle al estudiante reponer el trabajo o asignarle trabajo adicional en
adición al trabajo a ser repuesto.
Toda tarea a ser completada antes de taller deberá ser entregada en la fecha
asignada. El facilitador ajustará la nota de las tareas repuestas.
4. Si un estudiante se ausenta a mas de un taller el facilitador tendrá las siguientes
opciones:
a. Si es a dos talleres, el facilitador reducirá una nota por debajo basado en
la nota existente.
b. Si el estudiante se ausenta a tres talleres, el facilitador reducirá la nota a
dos por debajo de la nota existente.
5. La asistencia y participación en clase de actividades y presentaciones orales es
extremadamente importante pues no se pueden reponer. Si el estudiante provee
una excusa valida y verificable, el facilitador determinara una actividad
equivalente a evaluar que sustituya la misma. Esta actividad deberá incluir el
FINA 630/FINA 740 Investments 7
Prep. 2008. José Martinez, CPA EPM
mismo contenido y componentes del lenguaje como la presentación oral o
actividad a ser repuesta.
6. En actividades de grupo el grupo será evaluado por su trabajo final. Sin
embargo, cada miembro de grupo deberá participar y cooperar para lograr un
trabajo de excelencia, pero recibirán una calificación individual.
7. Se espera que todo trabajo escrito sea de la autoría de cada estudiante y no
plagiado. Se debe entender que todo trabajo sometido esta citado
apropiadamente o parafraseado y citado dando atención al autor. Todo
estudiante debe ser el autor de su propio trabajo. Todo trabajo que sea plagiado,
copiado o presente trazos de otro será calificado con cero (vea la política de
honestidad académica).
8. Si el facilitador hace cambios al modulo o guía de estudio, deberá discutirlos y
entregar copia a los estudiantes por escrito al principio del primer taller.
9. El facilitador establecerá los medios para contactar a los estudiantes proveyendo
su correo electrónico, teléfonos, y el horario disponibles.
10. EL uso de celulares esta prohibido durante las sesiones de clase; de haber una
necesidad, deberá permanecer en vibración o en silencio.
11. La visita de niños y familiares no registrados en el curso no está permitida en el
salón de clases.
12. Todo estudiante esta sujeto a las políticas y normas de conducta y
comportamiento que rigen SUAGM y el curso.

Filosofía y Metodología Educativa
Este curso está basado en la teoría educativa del Constructivismo.
Constructivismo es una filosofía de aprendizaje fundamentada en la premisa, de que,
reflexionando a través de nuestras experiencias, podemos construir nuestro propio
conocimiento sobre el mundo en el que vivimos.
Cada uno de nosotros genera nuestras propias “reglas” y “métodos mentales”
que utilizamos para darle sentido a nuestras experiencias. Aprender, por lo tanto, es
simplemente el proceso de ajustar nuestros modelos mentales para poder acomodar
nuevas experiencias. Como facilitadores, nuestro enfoque es el mantener una
conexión entre los hechos y fomentar un nuevo entendimiento en los estudiantes.
También, intentamos adaptar nuestras estrategias de enseñanza a las respuestas de
nuestros estudiantes y motivar a los mismos a analizar, interpretar y predecir
información.
Existen varios principios para el constructivismo, entre los cuales están:
1. El aprendizaje es una búsqueda de significados. Por lo tanto, el aprendizaje debe
comenzar con situaciones en las cuales los estudiantes estén buscando
activamente construir un significado.
2. Significado requiere comprender todas las partes, las cuales deben entenderse en
el contexto del todo. Por lo tanto, el proceso de aprendizaje se enfoca en los
conceptos primarios, no en hechos aislados.
3. Para enseñar bien, debemos entender los modelos mentales que los estudiantes
utilizan para percibir el mundo y las presunciones que ellos hacen para apoyar
dichos modelos.
4. El propósito del aprendizaje es para un individuo el construir su propio significado,
no sólo memorizar las contestaciones “correctas” y repetir el significado de otra
persona. Como la educación es intrínsicamente interdisciplinaria, la única forma
válida para asegurar el aprendizaje es hacer del avalúo parte esencial de dicho
proceso, asegurando que el mismo provea a los estudiantes con la información
sobre la calidad de su aprendizaje.
5. La evaluación debe servir como una herramienta de auto-análisis.
FINA 630/FINA 740 Investments 10
Prep. 2008. José Martinez, CPA EPM
6. Proveer herramientas y ambientes que ayuden a los estudiantes a interpretar las
múltiples perspectivas que existen en el mundo.
7. El aprendizaje debe ser controlado internamente y analizado por el estudiante.

Description of Course Policies
1. This course follows the Sistema Universitario Ana G. Méndez Dual-Language
Discipline-Based Immersion Model® designed to promote each student’s
development as a Dual Language Professional. Workshops will be facilitated in
English and Spanish, strictly using the 50/50 model. This means that each workshop
will be conducted entirely in the language specified. The language used in the
FINA 630/FINA 740 Investments 14
Prep. 2008. José Martinez, CPA EPM
workshops will alternate to insure that 50% of the course will be conducted in
English and 50% in Spanish. To maintain this balance, the course module may
specify that both languages will be used during the fifth workshop, dividing that
workshop’s time and activities between the two languages. If students have difficulty
with asking a question in the target language in which the activity is being
conducted, students may choose to use their preferred language for that particular
question. However, the facilitator must answer in the language assigned for that
particular day. This should only be an exception as it is important for students to use
the assigned language. The 50/50 model does not apply to language courses where
the delivery of instruction must be conducted in the language taught (Spanish or
English only).
2. The course is conducted in an accelerated format and requires that students prepare
in advance for each workshop according to the course module. Each workshop
requires an average ten hours of preparation but could require more.
3. Attendance at all class sessions is mandatory. A student that is absent to a
workshop must present the facilitator a reasonable excuse. The facilitator will
evaluate if the absence is justified and decide how the student will make up the
missing work, if applicable. The facilitator will decide on the following: allow the
student to make up the work, or allow the student to make up the work and assign
extra work to compensate for the missing class time.
Assignments required prior to the workshop must be completed and turned in on the
assigned date. The facilitator may decide to adjust the grade given for late
assignments and make-up work.
4. If a student is absent to more than one workshop the facilitator will have the
following options:
a. If a student misses two workshops, the facilitator may lower one grade based
on the students existing grade.
b. If the student misses three workshops, the facilitator may lower two grades
based on the students existing grade.
5. Student attendance and participation in oral presentations and special class
activities are extremely important as it is not possible to assure that they can be
FINA 630/FINA 740 Investments 15
Prep. 2008. José Martinez, CPA EPM
made up. If the student provides a valid and verifiable excuse, the facilitator may
determine a substitute evaluation activity if he/she understands that an equivalent
activity is possible. This activity must include the same content and language
components as the oral presentation or special activity that was missed.
6. In cooperative activities the group will be assessed for their final work. However,
each member will have to collaborate to assure the success of the group and the
assessment will be done collectively as well as individually.
7. It is expected that all written work will be solely that of the student and should not be
plagiarized. That is, the student must be the author of all work submitted. All quoted
or paraphrased material must be properly cited, with credit given to its author or
publisher. It should be noted that plagiarized writings are easily detectable and
students should not risk losing credit for material that is clearly not their own (see
Academic Honesty Policy).
8. If the Facilitator makes changes to the study guide, such changes should be
discussed with and given to students in writing at the beginning of the first workshop.
9. The facilitator will establish a means of contacting students by providing an email
address, phone number, hours to be contacted and days.
10. The use of cellular phones is prohibited during sessions; if there is a need to have
one, it must be on vibrate or silent mode during class session.
11. Children or family members that are not registered in the course are not allowed to
the classrooms.
12. All students are subject to the policies regarding behavior in the university
community established by the institution and in this course.

Teaching Philosophy and Methodology
This course is grounded in the learning theory of Constructivism. Constructivism
is a philosophy of learning founded on the premise that, by reflecting on our
experiences, we construct our own understanding of the world in which we live.
Each of us generates our own “rules” and “mental models,” which we use to
make sense of our experiences. Learning, therefore, is simply the process of adjusting
our mental models to accommodate new experiences. As teachers, our focus is on
making connections between facts and fostering new understanding in students. We
will also attempt to tailor our teaching strategies to student responses and encourage
students to analyze, interpret and predict information.
There are several guiding principles of constructivism:
1. Learning is a search for meaning. Therefore, learning must start with the
issues around which students are actively trying to construct meaning.
2. Meaning requires understanding wholes as well as parts. And parts must be
understood in the context of wholes. Therefore, the learning process focuses
on primary concepts, not isolated facts.
3. In order to teach well, we must understand the mental models that students
use to perceive the world and the assumptions they make to support those
models.
4. The purpose of learning is for an individual to construct his or her own
meaning, not just memorize the "right" answers and regurgitate someone
else's meaning. Since education is inherently interdisciplinary, the only
valuable way to measure learning is to make the assessment part of the
learning process, ensuring it provides students with information on the quality
of their learning.
5. Evaluation should serve as a self-analysis tool.
6. Provide tools and environments that help learners interpret the multiple
perspectives of the world.
7. Learning should be internally controlled and mediated by the learner.
