課程概述

The first semester of this Freshman English course focuses on improving students’ fluency and accuracy in language reception and production especially in the listening and speaking skill areas. Attentive listening is a critical skill that students must master in order to carry out meaningful conversations for the purpose of effective communication. Knowing that some students in their first semester at the university are not accustomed to speaking in English, the instructor will first build up students’ confidence in listening and speaking by having students converse in everyday contexts through a lot of in-class listening and speaking activities. Once students feel comfortable speaking up in such controlled class settings, they will then be guided to speak on more sophisticated topics. Readings of different genres will be chosen to encourage students to build vocabulary, think and speak on a wide range of topics.  

課程目標
One of the goals of this course is to help students bridge the gap between high school English and college English. Under the instructor’s guidance, it is with hope that students can make use of their already well-learned grammar and vocabulary to orally express themselves clearly and effectively. Listening and reading serve the purpose of internalizing correct sentence structures and patterns used in speaking and writing and will therefore be much emphasized. Through in-class discussions on different topics, students will have the chance to be exposed to different kinds of knowledge necessary to develop critical thinking and academic skills. These, along with listening, speaking, and reading, will be valuable skills that students need to be equipped with to continue with their college work throughout their university lives. 
課程要求
This course will be conducted entirely in English. Students are expected to speak to their peers, instructor, and teaching assistant in English in the classroom. Since students only meet the instructor once a week for 3 hours, students are expected to take an active role in all class activities to maximize their learning opportunities. A student-centered approach will be adopted to allow students to make full use of class time to achieve their English-learning goals and course learning objectives. Students who are not serious in their learning please do not consider signing up for this course.

Students should attend all classes and come to class on time and prepared. Attendance is taken seriously. Students who need to be absent should notify the instructor at least 2 days in advance. Students who miss more than 4 classes automatically fail the course.
