|
Remedial English (E10032100) is a three-hour non-credited English course offered to students
who score poorly (i.e. below 50%) on the placement test. Since the major concern of this course
is to improve the students? proficiency before starting their ordinary university English basic
courses and major courses taught in English, special emphasis has been placed on enhancing the
students? ability to effectively acquire the four language skills: reading, writing, listening, and
speaking. Specifically, the course attempts to ensure an academically acceptable performance on
the part of the students at the level of the English basic courses. Moreover, the course aims at
expanding students? vocabulary needed for various tasks. |

English Language II
|
3 |
|
University English II is a three-credit hour university-required English language course specifically designed to meet the needs of the students of the humanities and social sciences. The instructors of the course will employ a broad-based approach by integrating the four language skills, in order to enable students to improve their reading skills and comprehension of a variety of academic texts and to provide their own input by expressing their opinions on the topics under discussion, through either verbal participation in class or written assignments at home. As the discussions in class will be held in English, this is hoped to enhance the listening comprehension of students as well as provide them with opportunities to exercise their speaking skills. The units in the prescribed textbook have been organized according to the various strategies that students need to practice in order to improve their speed and comprehension, particularly while reading on an academic subject in English. These strategies include understanding vocabulary in context, using the dictionary, understanding information from graphs and charts, scanning for specific information, taking notes from reading, studying collocations ?. etc. In Addition to the texts set for intensive reading, six more passages are also considered as self ? reading passages so as to encourage students to read at home and contact their instructors. |
