In this class, focus is laid on developing fluency and communicative skills to help the students to become active participants in conversation and discussion in English. Practice is given in the various ways in which a particular communicative function can be realised to assist in making choices as to what one says and in thinking about the appropriateness of how one says it. Personal experiences and points of view are exchanged and topics are discussed. Structured communication exercises may include extended situational responses, eliciting of information, problem solving and short talks on prepared topics. Emphasis is laid upon practising stress and intonation patterns, which are more directly related to communicative functions than grammatical forms. Attention is also drawn to the differences between spoken and written English.
To be effective, the workshop requires full participation of course members. Students will be expected to work individually or in small groups in sharing their ideas during informal discussion or in preparing various topics, which they will then present to the group as whole.
