Recognize and reinforce academic vocabulary;
Demonstrate understanding of features of academic reading and writing;
Carry out the responsibilities and roles of working cohesively in a group for research presentations;
Respond to feedback and request clarification;
Analyze successful strategies for paraphrasing and summarizing;
Distinguish formal language and informal language and demonstrate the appropriate use of the former in
academic speaking and writing;
Assess the dangers and pitfalls of plagiarism and how it affects academic integrity;
Develop self and peer evaluative techniques which incorporate reflective practices for further improvement;
Generate a research topic with research functions that respond to modern social or scientific issues;
Improve writing through critical peer-editing, acting as a voice of change, not complacency;

预达学习成果 Learning Outcomes
In this course, EAP students are expected to focus on issues which interest them, think critically about those issues,
and develop their topics through research into two major assignments, including a group research presentation and an
individual argumentative research paper. In addition to groupwork, peer editing also plays an important role, motivating
students to support each other, with the teacher acting as a guiding facilitator.
Upon taking this EAP course, students are able to 1) use library databases to search reliable resources for their own
research topic; 2) make a group research presentation about the topic they select; 3) and demonstrate their group
research outcome and understanding of academic writing in completing one individual argumentative research paper.
By completing this course, students are also expected be aware of, and produce, work that conforms to academic norm
and properly apply writing techniques to academic writing in their own field of study in the future.
