Course Description
(English Version)
|
The
purpose of this course is to promote student interest in the study of English
within an English-speaking environment. It is also designed to improve
communicative competence through the reading, listening, speaking and writing
of English in order to meet academic requirements. This design focuses on the
study of basic and advanced skills and styles by reading, writing,
understanding and appreciating British and American literature and culture
through the use of magazine articles, textbook passages, essays, poems, and
short stories. It is also designed to encourage the student to open his or
her mind through the discussion of literature and humanism using movies based
on novels, and new strategies and activities for TOEFL®iBT and TOEIC Tests
from ETS. Through this process, critical thinking is also encouraged by
employing extensive reading selections and the use of internet resources for
sharing. Film viewing, academic writings, sample essays continue to develop
critical thinking skills by exposure to global issues. This will help the
student to practice oral and written English and to build personal values,
quality of life and an appreciation of global cultures. In this way the
student is able to develop a professional fondness for English and thus to continue
study in three areas – language, literature, and linguistics. Thus, this
design will aid in preparing the student for self-study for a lifetime.
