課程概述

This course consists of two hours of lectures/class discussions and one-hour group discussions/writing tasks. While the two-hour-lecture/class discussion equips students with the essential fundamental knowledge of writing English journal papers and conducting English presentation, the one-hour group discussion enables students to practice the knowledge and skills using authentic publications. By the end of the training, students should finish an individual term paper or a collaborative writing project, making use of the moves and techniques learned from the course. In addition, students are provided the opportunity to apply their trained presentation techniques to conduct their simulation poster presentation or/and oral presentation.

課程內容包含學術文章及析論類文章的閱讀分析,搭配適當的討論與寫作練習。
希望能透過課程設計,幫助學生琢磨寫作策略與技巧,並使學生自覺理解書面表達的有效方法。  

課程目標
This course will train students to learn how to write an academic journal research paper. The course will consist of an introduction to academic English and to the framework of each part of an academic paper. Students will also be trained how to make an oral presentation of their research.

此類課程使用本中心研究團隊所研發的教材,內容著重在分析整理一般學術論文寫作的文步與寫作特性。讓學生在邁向專業寫作之前,能熟習學術論文的基本架構與技巧。學生在課程中,也會學習摘要、段落及評論文章的撰寫計巧。此外,口頭報告的訓練,也是此類課程的特色之一。 
課程要求
Students need to complete a variety of learning tasks (guided reading/writing practices, class/paired discussions, and individual/collaborative writing tasks) in an attempt to develop their writing skills and better understand the structural features of research papers.
