到達目標


A course of study developing the critical skills of interpreting poetry and stories with particular emphasis on how forms of literature and the way that they engage with ideas such as the Self, the Other, Community, and Reality, develop over time. The students will also study reading and writing skills to support preparation for examinations.

授業の進め方・学習方法


Activities in class will be content-driven and the methods in which the content is studied will be wide ranging from teacher centered lecture style classes, to group activities, to individual research and study activities.

Assessment in the class will consist of both formative and summative assessment; formal and informal. Students’ skills of reading, writing, speaking and listening will each be assessed each term through written essays, tests, presentations and participation in group discussions and activities.
