EDU教 305 R1R2
The aim of this course is to enhance students' critical English reading abilities and develop more formal discussion skills focusing on critical reading of and reference to source materials. In this class, students will read a variety of texts with enhanced fluency following coherent and effective use of reading strategies. Students will also build-up impromptu speaking skills to actively engage in leading a discussion with a critical perspective (e.g., distinguishing between fact and opinion, evaluating sources, and identifying points of view). Discussion skills will be practiced in a variety of formats including whole-class analysis of topical issues, problem-solving group work, or short individual oral presentations.
