Outline (in English)

This course will seek to introduce the culture & society of contemporary Britain to students through a series of stimulating audio-visual units, together with selected thematically linked readings.In addition to offering a greater understanding of contemporary UK culture, the course encourages students through the presentation & report to critically compare & contrast UK culture & society with their own.
During this course, through regular exposure to a variety of audio-visual material, students will have the opportunity to sharpen their listening skills. Follow-up pair-work comprehension questions, discussion & structured conversation practice will also give them the opportunity to improve their oral skills.
Finally students will be encouraged to reflect on their own culture & society as they learn about UK.
Regular reading assignments with both vocabulary exercises & comprehension questions, & audio-visual vocabulary preparation will be required from students each week.
No more than 3 absences will be permitted. The weekly reading assignment, preparatory study and review time for this class are about 4 hours for each week. University guidelines suggest preparation and review are around 4 hours a week for a two-credit course and around an hour a week for a one-credit course.
Evaluation will be based on the following criteria:

Homework & Classwork 40%
Presentation 30%
Report 30%

In principle, no more than 3 absences are permitted
