You may have printed notes on paper, but you may not be online (if you are in a visual DBA, you may not go to any other website) You must be alone You may be asked cultural questions. You may be asked to explain any new grammar structures you have learned in the module You may be questioned in Spanish using your new grammar structures and vocabulary, and you will be required to answer in Spanish, in complete sentences! You may be asked to model new conversation skills you have learned in the module.
