教育目標

Course Objectives: On completion of the course, students should be able to 1) deliver a variety of formal and informal presentations in English; 2) present ideas clearly with emphasis on effective use of verbal and nonverbal communication skills; 3) demonstrate critical thinking skills in daily life communication, both as a speaker and as a listener; and 4) express their ideas in English more confidently. 本課程的設計奠基於任務導向學習法，學生透過完成特別設計的學習任務來促進其語言習得。在這個學期中，學生將會有四項任務需要達成。 透過針對不同社會議題的文本閱讀、電影和紀錄片的觀賞，教師將會引導學生進行課堂討論及學習任務的順利完成。 Theme of this course: Critical Thinking via Task-based Activities This course is inspired by task-based learning, an instructional approach where learners carry out tasks while at the same time promoting the acquisition of language. Throughout the semester, there are four tasks to be completed. Reading articles, movies, and documentaries that center around different social issues will be used as a springboard for class discussion and project implementation.

課程概述

SENM, an extension of FENM, is a student-centered course. It features a small class size of no more than 25 students, where English is taught with the goal of raising students’ multi-cultural awareness and competence. Various communicative activities are incorporated into the course to help students to achieve this goal. Themes in the SENM curriculum include, but are not limited to, the following list: (1) Cross-cultural Awareness and Competence (2) Literary Appreciation and Criticism (3) Natural Disasters and Global Cooperation (4) Embracing Diversity & Traditions of Others (5) Citizenship and Responsibility (6) Environmental Awareness and Global Citizenship. 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。
