/Course Goals
This course uses task-based language learning, where students interact with each other in English in pairs or small groups to get information and solve problems. Weekly activities include: reading newspaper articles, discussions, debates.

In addition, students work in small project groups during six weeks to investigate a current issue from the media and present the dilemma involved.  Projects culminate in presentations in which each group presents two opposing opinions about the problem and explain the merits and demerits of these opinions. .

Outside class, students prepare for class by writing an essay (200 words) and prepare for their group project together with their teammates.

These practical activities are intended to develop students' communication skills in English, including negotiation, persuasion and debate skills.
