As you may know, this is the last required English course for most of you. Math students still have one more year of four-skill content based English courses. They are very lucky indeed to have a study program where English is given a special place. The rest of you can either take Communicative English, Toefl, Writing in English or two-year courses in French, German, Italian, Japanese and Mandarin, once you hace completed all the three first -year English courses. Did you know about this? Yes, you can take any of those courses right here at our university. You need a pre-registration, though, and permission from your professional studies coordinator in order to take these courses. Positions are filled early as there are too many students who would like to take these extra-plan courses (credits are valid for your GPA but do not count towards graduation)
Again, our main course objective will be reading comprehension but this time we will focus on three areas: the universe, evolution and artificial intelligence. We will be applying some of the skills and knowledge we learned and practice in the previous two courses. Check the evaluation plan in the side bar and start posting your comments, suggestions and concerns in the "comments" area at the end of each blog post.
To get you started writing, please tell us about your expectations in this course, what you would like to improve in your reading, what you would like to learn, if the courses have been at your level so far or if they have been too easy or too difficult. Go ahead and leave your comment. To have an idea on how blogging works in a reading course, you can visit previous sites published in the first and second terms.
