課程概述 |
This section of Freshman Composition is a one-year course. In the first semester, we will first learn how to write good sentences, focusing on grammar practice. Then we will learn how to write a good paragraph, focusing on organization, cohesion, and coherence. In the second semester, we gradually move on to 300 word composition. |
課程目標 |

1.have received practice in writing paragraphs and short essays.
2.be able to review, edit and correct their own and others’ work for both content and language.
3.be able to write accurately and appropriately on a restricted range of topics and short tasks.
4.have improved the grammatical accuracy of their writing. |
課程要求 |
This course is designed as an interactive workshop. All students are expected to participate actively in the learning process. Class time will be divided into several segments for different activities: lectures, group exercise (including grammar practice, sentence writing, editing, reviewing and reading discussion, etc.) and in-class writing. We will start from sentence practice and introduce basic concepts of English writing. Short stories will be used as teaching materials. Students are expected to preview the materials before each class. We will write six paragraphs in total in this semester. In addition to these six paragraphs, students will have to keep journal writing every two weeks. Students are required to make short group oral presentations on "The Elements of Style" and "Barron's 1100 Words You Need to Know". |
