Activity 12 · 2%
What you bring
From the URA: the rule Appointments + need to, the model sentences and 3 words of your career prepared with SofIA.
What this prepares you for
The H5P checks the same forms with automatic feedback.

Your mission

How do you make a medical appointment in Honduras? Compare with Canada (find information on an official site).

Option A · My career. How do you make a medical appointment in Honduras? Compare with Canada (find information on an official site).
Option B · Cultural Corner III PAC. Canadian Thanksgiving: clinics have holiday hours. Book an appointment for after the long weekend. Add 1 fact from the official site and 1 sentence comparing with Honduras.

Model

In Honduras I usually go to the health centre early and wait. In Canada you can often book a family doctor appointment online. You need to bring your health card.

Your career in this forum

Write about your career (its exact name in the UNAH Oferta Académica). Choose the example of your area and change it:

  • Health sciences: Receptionist: «The next appointment is on Wednesday at 9:30.»
  • Engineering & technology: You can book an appointment online with the clinic app.
  • Business & economics: The clinic needs to reduce waiting times.
  • Education, humanities & communication: Write a polite email to change an appointment.
  • Environment, agriculture & tourism: Rural clinics need to cover long distances.

Use 3 words of your career glossary.

Cultural connection · III PAC

Event of this week: Thanksgiving (Canada) (Monday, October 12). See it in your III PAC Cultural Passport.

Your cultural mission: Canadian Thanksgiving: clinics have holiday hours. Book an appointment for after the long weekend.

Mirror Honduras: In Honduras, October 12 is also a holiday. Compare the two days.

Include one comparison between Canada and Honduras: one similarity and one difference.

Be respectful: say «In my experience…» or «In my city…», not «All Americans…» or «All Hondurans…». Need ideas? Ask SofIA Cultural.
