課程概述

This course is designed to help students develop their English listening, reading, speaking, and writing skills through the exploration of different topics of interest to them. A variety of task-based activities and communicative activities and exercises, such as class discussions, dialogues, role plays, group presentations, and speeches, are designed to motivate students to speak confidently and help them acquire greater fluency in spoken English. The course will also focus on the development of listening comprehension, critical thinking and analyzing skills, as well as the ability to use language accurately and effectively. Weekly vocabulary working sheets, writing assignments and conversation practices will also enable the students to establish writing and speaking concepts and advance their lexico-grammatical knowledge.  

課程目標
Specific course objectives include: (1) developing an aural and oral language ability to understand conversations, lectures, news reports, TV/radio programs, and to carry on conversations in social settings, (2) enhancing comprehension in written information, newspapers, magazines, and general documents, (3) enhancing oral fluency and accuracy, (4) developing students’ critical thinking and analyzing skills to help them develop and organize their ideas while writing, and (5) equipping students to take on both personal and professional writing tasks they may face in social occasions.
