講義概要/Course description
  指定された数冊の教科書の中から担当者が選択したテキストを基に授業を進めるため、初回授業時に各担当者から授業の説明があるが、受講生全員が積極的に参加し、レベルに合ったtasksやexercisesをこなすことによって成り立つ実践的な授業が中心となる。

本授業では言語インプット活動としてのリーディングとアウトプット活動としてのライティングを中心とした授業を行う。学業に関連ある英文を辞書を有効に活用しながら理解し、基本的文法構造を活用してまとまりのある英文や報告文を書けるように実践的な練習を行う。また、学期末に実施する試験のほかにも定期的に到達度を評価する。

  As instructors will conduct lessons using a chosen textbook (among several possible choices of textbooks), they will explain during the first class meeting how they plan to incorporate selected textbook content with various level-appropriate tasks and exercises.


  In this course, students will learn reading as an input activity and writing as an output activity. 

They should be able to understand an academic passage by making effective use of a dictionary and write a coherent essay and report using simple sentences . 

Achievement will be evaluated regularly in addition to the final exam.
