Description
This course aims to equip students with language learning strategies to take charge of their own language acquisition, and to prepare for study abroad experiences. Students will identify their learning styles, and will develop personal strategies for language learning beyond the classroom. In group and class discussions, students will repeat a cycle of setting goals, planning learning activities, and reflecting on the results. This will provide opportunities to express opinions and ideas with classmates in English. Projects will use the internet and other resources identified by the students and the instructor. Students will focus mostly on their reading and writing skills.
