The aim of this course is to improve students' written English outside a purely academic context. This may include, for example, letter writing, summary writing, intertextual and intercultural skills (e.g. translation work), and other more creative writing activities (e.g. news articles, advertising copy). Wherever necessary, language issues (e.g. grammar, vocabulary and expression, punctuation, spelling, sentence construction, style, cultural elements) will also be addressed.
Course requirements: regular attendance, active participation and completion of all home assignments. Students will be evaluated by means of continuous assessment (various in-class writing tasks).
(N.B. Students with limited knowledge of German may attend an Advanced Writing Skills course instead). |
