授業の目的・内容
/Course Objectives
The goal in the Writing Skills IV course is to develop students’ writing and critical thinking abilities in English, progressing from production of shorter to longer academic texts, and from writing on familiar topics to writing about more complex and academic ones. Students should be encouraged to use and integrate authentic text to reflect, react, write, and revise.

Overall Objectives
1. To help students understand the typical structure of a ‘good’ essay
2. To help students understand (genre-specific) patterns of essay organization
3. To help students plan essays
4. To help students use a variety of references and utilize Internet sources
5. To help students revise and edit their essays
6. To help students develop computer literacy skills                    
7. To help students become more familiar with referencing and creating a bibliography (MLA or APA styles)

This course focuses on improving students’ "vocabulary," "grammar" and "writing" skills, as stated in DP 2. Overall objectives are for them to acquire the basics of "written productive skills," as stated in the CP.
