三、教學目標 Objectives
Course Purpose: The purpose of this course is to improve students’ ability to critically read and discuss current events and to increase the amount of vocabulary each student knows. 
四、課程內容 Course Description
整體敘述 Overall Description
These articles will be taken from various news sources.

The first story [A] will be done by the teacher in the first hour of class and the other two [B and C] will be done in the groups in the second hour. Students are responsible for printing out the three articles in advance and bringing them to class. All exam and quiz questions will come from these articles. The teacher will supply all activity sheets related to the A article covered in the first hour as well as vocabulary for the quizzes.
The class will be structured as follows: The teacher will teach the first article, ‘A’, during the first hour. In the second hour of class, students, in groups of 4, will take turns presenting the other two articles. Thus each student will have to present an article every other week. Students will present articles in alphabetical order, so if your name comes first in the group [ex. Amy] you present the ‘B’ article. The next student in the group [ex. Betty] presents article ‘C’. The remaining two students will present articles the following week. Everyone should read the articles in advance. Each student has approximately 20 - 25 minutes to lead a discussion on the article. The teacher will grade the student’s performance in class so students must create handouts like question sheets or other activity sheets and give a copy to the teacher [with your English name on it]. It’s VERY IMPORTANT to give a copy of your question sheet on the day you present that article. Group members will rotate every four weeks. All group members must participate in the discussion. Your grade depends on your participation!
Students will start presenting their own articles in week 3 of the semester and students will present in alphabetical order of their English name in their group.

Quizzes: Surprise vocabulary quizzes will be regularly given in class. These quizzes will cover any of the vocabulary contained in the articles. Students are urged to keep a notebook of the vocabulary and review it regularly.
