Objectives |
Based on the English Writing (I) course from the previous semester, the students would be more familiar with their own weaknesses and strengths after one semester’s training. However, there are still many blind points among their merits and limitations. One common complaint from the professors about the students’ English writing is that the students still have to put emphasis upon the basics of sentence structuring in English writing. The elements of good writing are (1) clear, (2) vigorous, (3) well organized, (4) tightly focused, and (5) adapted to its audience.(Haitston & Keene, 2003). And the great hurdle out student writers must face is learning how to organize their writing. Therefore, the objectives of English Writing (II) course are the following: (1) students will learn how to generate topics (2) students will write cohesive paragraphs (3) students will be able to write the short papers and reports, about 1,000 – 1,500 words. (4) there are fewer grammatical mistakes in the students’ papers (5) students will be able to express their own ideas and viewpoints clearly and appropriately. |
