This 5-module Integrated Core Skills course will provide high-intermediate English Language learners with real-world content to practice reading, writing, and grammar skills that will allow them to succeed in academic settings. In this communicative and dynamic course, learners will participate in a variety of independent and collaborative activities that foster critical thinking and provide opportunities for meaningful interaction in English. High-interest content, including visual aids, videos, and print and online academic readings, will provide a basis for vocabulary-building, grammar practice, and essay writing. Particular attention will be paid to digital literacy and academic skill development. An outcomes-based approach will be taken, and learners will monitor their language progress through professor feedback and self-reflection.
