課程概述 |
English Oral Training I (1) is the first course of the year-long course that aims to enhance students’ communication skills in the English language. This semester, this course focuses on developing students’ speaking fluency on a wide range of discussion topics/ issues. Specifically, through discussions of current or cultural issues, this course prepares students to be analytical speakers and thinkers. Students will learn to be effective leaders and participants through various group- and individual-led discussions. Students will also engage in other forms of communicative activities, such as interviews, presentation, games, debates, Q & A session, presentation, and role-play. Accuracy is also emphasized whenever a teaching moment arises.

Activities, attitudes, and attendance |
30% |
They will include but not limited to listening activities, spontaneous and planned speeches, pair/group discussion, short reading and writing, sharing of assignment progress, as well as self- and peer evaluations. Good learning attitudes include coming to each class session on time, participating in the front rows, asking questions, and listening to one another. As mutual communication is important and is part of the learning process, you are encouraged to discuss with me from time to time as regards your own learning in this course.
*Attendance policies in this course*
The purpose of explicating the attendance policies for all my courses are threefold: (1) to maintain a fair grading system for this percentage of grade; 2) to respect one another in the classroom as each of you will need to lead class sessions on the stage; and 3) to ensure students' best learning outcomes. For the latter reason, in particular, as this is a practice-based course in which in-class activities are essential in developing students' language fluency, student learning attitudes and participation therefore become particularly important in this class. Students who decide to take this course should pay additional attention to the following rules:
1.Please come to each class session on time. If you are late for more than 10 minutes without a valid excuse/proof or a prior approved notice, you will be considered as absent for that particular session(s).
2.While electronic resources (e.g., on-line dictionary) will be incorporated in the classroom use (e.g., during an in-class group activity), however, if you use electronic devices (e.g., smart phones, tablets, iPod, and etc.) under a situation without the instructor’s consent (e.g., during when your classmate is presenting on the stage or when the instructor is leading an activity), you will be considered as absent for that particular session(s). If you need to make a phone call due to an emergency (e.g., family-related issues), you should inform the instructor beforehand.
3.If you do other non-relevant class activities (e.g., doing homework or preparing exams for other classes), you will be considered as absent for that particular session(s).
4.If you sleep during the class, you will be considered as absent for the particular session(s). If you need a rest due to an illness, you should go home and do so; later obtain a proof of office visit from your doctor and submit it to the instructor.
5.If you are absent for class session(s), be it accidental or not, there will be NO additional tests or assignments offered for you to make up for your attendance grade.

Collaborative speaking projects |
30% |
As you proceed through the course, you will plan and complete 2 (once with a partner and once with a group, each worth 15%) discussion-based projects based on 2 different principles that we are studying in the textbook.
(1) Group-led demonstration: In a group, students will sign up to demonstrate a discussion principle for the class from one of the assigned chapters of Discussion: Process and Principles. Your purpose is to show your fellow students how to apply this principle in discussion and what its value is.
**Guidelines: For the group-led demo, you will do a role play in which you demonstrate the principle through two discussions, one lacking the discussion principle, and the other practicing the discussion principle. You will also incorporate the "Discussion Phrase Bank" of each unit into your dialogues. After your performance, two members from your group need to conduct a short class session as answers to the two "Discussion Principle Questions" at the end of the Discussion Principle.
(2) Pair-led lab activity: In a pair, you will plan and lead one lab activity in the textbook based on the related discussion principle for your assigned activity. Your activity should include audience participation and discussion. Your purpose is to help your fellow students experience for themselves key communicative skills related to the discussion loop.
** Guidelines: To maximize audience participation and your own learning in, you are encouraged to be creative and use/combine different forms of application (i.e., role play, interviews, games, poster presentations, PPT shows, YouTube clips, panel discussions, handouts, and etc.) of your pair-led activity. You are also encouraged to relate topics in current news/stories and/or issues in popular culture.

3. |
Individual speaking project |
30% |
You will plan and carry out one discussion-based project on a topic of your own choosing. This will be a formal demonstration which requires you to synthesize and apply aspects of a good discussion that we are studying in the course. Include a visual aid that you have created yourself in your presentation. Your purpose is to demonstrate your ability in leading a group discussion.
** Guidelines: For your own discussion demonstration, you will first share your own stories/experiences related to the topic and then lead the whole class into discussions using appropriate principle(s) that we are studying in the textbook. If you choose a topic in a later unit, you can be flexible and incorporate previous principle(s) into your discussion strategies.
