試験及び成績評価
This course requires a lot of reading and writing. The reading will often be challenging. It will often require more than one pass (i.e., reading the same text more than once). A student’s understanding of the readings will reflect their preparation (i.e., the number of times the student reads, the notes that they took, etc.). The better prepared, the better the student will be at discussing the article, the more points they will receive for participation.


For the main assignment, students will need to demonstrate their knowledge of text synthesis, paraphrasing, using academic stock phrases and sentences, academic vocabulary, and cohesion.  

In-class participation / completion of exercises and activities (40%)

Final Writing Assignment (60%)
