学習の目的と方法

授業の概要 Practice writing short compositions (multi-paragraph) in English. Learning American/English styles and formats of short composition writing.
学習の目的 As with most of my English classes, I am aiming at teaching a skill. Students should have an actual, usable skill (the ability to write a good short composition) after finishing this class - not merely getting some information. Therefore, students are expected to write and participate in conversation during class. Students will also develop their intellects when learning to write in an engaging and/or persuasive manner. Finally, students will learn to become sensitive to the different English writing styles.
学習の到達目標 Upon finishing this class, students should be able to confidently write (and revise) short essays in English, including Narrative, Defending an opinion, and other styles. The second (Winter) term will cover more persuasive writing, including "Supplying examples in illustrate an idea" , "Supplying reasons to defend an argument" and summarizing other work.
