教育目標

本課程著重英語溝通技巧的培養，是大二英文課程模組化的實驗課程，為本校深耕計畫的一部分。修課學生全學年會待在原班，但上、下學期將由不同的老師分別教授。本班上學期是「簡報技巧」，授課老師為邱妙津博士。下學期則為「專題製作」，授課老師是陳順龍博士。 本實驗課程主要是為了增進英文溝通能力及口語表現技巧的學生所設計。任課教師將會運用各種多元的題材與多媒體資源進行教學，藉此提供學生紮實的聽力及口說訓練。此外，學生將會獲得大量的口語學習活動，同時會在本學期進行兩場主要的英文口頭報告。透過謹慎規劃的授課內容與充足的口語練習，學生將能具體提升表達技巧，同時也能培養個人在口語表達上的自信心, 尤其是針對個人生活經驗的描述。 Course Objectives: On completion of the course, students should be able to (1) enhance their English listening ability; (2) enhance their English speaking ability; (3) enhance their overall English communicative ability; and (4) express and communicate their ideas in English more confidently. Course Contents: In addition to activities suggested by the textbook (Present Yourself 1: Experiences), this class also incorporates group discussions, online TED talks appreciations, and various hands-on presentation projects to enhance students’ ability of planning and giving presentations on a range of topics in a variety of situations.

In addition to activities suggested by the textbook (Top Notch 3), SENM also incorporates discussions, exhibitions, competitions, and show-and-tell’s to enhance students’ ability to understand, accept, and respect other cultures. 「大二英文」為「大一英文」之延伸。本課程將以25人小班制進行多元文化語境之英語教學，實踐以學習者為中心之教學理念，透過各種強調溝通之課室活動設計，引導學生有效提升其英文表達能力。 本課程所規劃之六大核心主題包括：(1) 跨文化意識及認知建構；(2) 文學賞析及評論；(3) 天然災害與國際合作；(4) 擁抱多元文化及族群差異；(5) 公民意識與社會責任；(6) 環境意識與國際公民。 除了透過主要教材Top Notch 3呈現相關內容外，本課程亦會結合討論、展演、競賽及實作等方式，強化學生探討各項議題所需之英文溝通能力，同時引導學生理解、接納並尊重異文化。期待學生能在多元文化之學習語境中，拓展視野、擁抱世界。
