Further Information
Courses are together with exams the building blocks for modules. Please keep in mind that information on the contents, learning outcomes and, especially examination conditions are given on the module level only – see section "Assignment to Modules" above.
additional remarks | This course includes note-taking in lectures, practising tutorial participation, academic writing and presenting a topic on a related field of study. Graded tasks include an oral presentation (with visual aids 25%), multiple drafts of written assignment(s) (2000 words) to allow students to develop written skills by means of a process of drafting and revising texts (50% total), and a final written examination (25%), all contributing to the final course grade. In the presentation, students should demonstrate an awareness of Anglophone academic public speaking conventions and are able to put these into practice; in the written assignment(s), students are graded on multiple drafts of their texts based on their ability to present content clearly and succinctly, taking readers’ needs and writing conventions into consideration. The final exam consists of a reading comprehension, a listening comprehension as well as tasks on features of academic English dealt with in class. Dictionaries and other aids may not be used during the exam. |
