This course develops the students’ ability to become competent and strategic readers who are able to read and comprehend short popular articles (about 1500-word long) in terms of topics, main ideas, supporting details, and text organization, either explicitly or implicitly stated. The class activities focus on providing practice with various reading strategies at both language and text levels, i.e. comprehending the meaning and use of unfamiliar lexical items, analyzing grammatical forms to comprehend a text, recognizing meanings expressed in different grammatical forms, skimming for general information, scanning for specific information, distinguishing between explicit and implicit information, identifying text types, and inferring relationships between ideas that are made salient. In addition to developing students’ competence in reading, this course also aims to cultivate students’ reading habits and positive attitude towards reading through the use of varied, interesting materials and activities. With carefully selected materials in terms of contents and activities of different interaction patterns, students are also expected to nurture good behaviour and skills in learning individually and with other people.
