授業の目的?内容 /Course Objectives |
The ability to write clear English and to support your ideas with information from different sources is an important skill in the workplace as well as at university. During this course we will cover a number of topics that are important now and in the future, and students are encouraged to discuss these topics and come up with their own ideas. This writing course will build on the writing skills studied in Writing Skills I and II to: 1. Understand what a 'good' essay is and to be able to use different patterns of essay organization. 2. Plan, revise and edit their essays, and develop computer literacy skills. 3. Use a variety of sources and understand how to cite and reference them (APA style).. |

授業の形式?方法と履修上の注意 /Teaching method and Attention the course |
This class is student-centered and students will work in pairs and groups to discuss topics and come up with their own ideas for essays, work on assigned tasks, and answer questions and solve problems. We will first learn how to write a critical review of an article or book. The course will then look at different model essays on how to present an argument as this is a very important skill in the workplace and university. Students will discuss the topics in the essays and extra materials and decide to what extent they agree or disagree with the arguments presented. Students will also practice presenting their own arguments on a topic of their choice before writing an argument essay. Finally, we will write a problem-solution essay. For the final essay, students will select a topic of their choice and research it. Students are encouraged to share their outlines and first drafts and receive comments from classmates before writing the final draft. |
