Project Description |
This new course project adopted elements of problem-based learning such that tasks and activities were designed to build upon each other as the learner progresses. It also followed a systematic approach to case analysis closely related to specific language learning objectives. Overall, the course was designed to integrate both analytical and communication skills. The face-to-face classroom sessions were used mainly for oral skills development and practice; whereas the reading and writing tasks were reserved for homework accessible via a course website. The website was only contain essential reading and writing tasks for classroom use, but also relevant and timely reference materials, visual learning cues to reinforce skills and an online portfolio where students collected their work. Each major unit was concluded with a formal assessment. These assessments were designed as a combination of individual and group tasks which covered all four language development skills. |
