Time and place
Course Information
Intended learning outcomes
This course aims to enhance students’ ability to communicate effectively in an English-speaking workplace. Students will develop these skills by engaging in discussions based upon discipline-related readings, preparing and delivering a presentation, improving their writing (focus on emails), further enhancing their grammatical awareness, and adding to their subject-specific vocabulary.
Teaching methodology
Major emphases are placed on spoken interaction and exercises in the classroom, extensive self-study, regular reading and understanding of English texts to use as source material for the students’ own presentation and writing, and practicing their own writing and speaking/presenting in English.
The intention is to conduct the course entirely face-to-face, but it may switch to online as the situation demands.
The course will be conducted entirely in English.
Course content
The course will encompass methods and materials for:
- engaging in compelling discipline relevant discussions
- effective presentation preparation and delivery
- efficient and coherent communication via email
- expansion and inclusion of discipline-specific vocabulary
- ensuring adequate grammatical competency.
Prior knowledge expected
