授業概要   Course Description During this course, we will continue to use a range of communicative styles to investigate contemporary issues and improve our critical thinking skills. Classes will normally begin with a background discussion of a topic from the textbook, Good-bye Galapagos, followed by a reading of the chapter. Following this, students will work in pairs and small groups to explore the theme. Finally you will write an essay based upon the readings.
到達目標   Class Goals This course will introduce students to some genres of English writing, including summaries, non-fiction essays, describing charts, and also the differences between written and spoken English. By the end of the course, students will be able to more confidently apply these genres to issues beyond the in-class topics.
