The objective of this course is to re-introduce students to more complex and academic concepts and skills of English language for science and engineering than the Basic Technical English course in the Spring semester. This course supports students in terms of applying the scientific knowledge and language in English as well as academic skills obtained in the Spring to more realistic learning and research tasks. Such tasks include academic writing (accuracy and fluency), academic discussions, presentations, student-generated research topics and scientific investigation of such topics in a small group and/or individually. Building knowledge of technical vocabulary, and developing abstract writing skills will also be addressed in this course. In other words, students will be trained to take initiative, plan their own academic research in English, and communicate their study and research in English with their peers and professors more freely. Through realistic and semi-realistic projects such as reading academic journal articles, proceedings and presentation files that interest students and may serve as justification for selecting certain research labs for their graduation research in the fourth year, students will be able to practice and use the knowledge and skills acquired in this course. Therefore, learning is closely associated with students' performance in understanding realistic materials, handling realistic tasks, and achieving realistic objectives in this course. |

1. Course Registration: Remedial classes (再履修クラス）only accept the students who have failed the same course previously. If a student has not yet taken the Technical English course before, he/she is not a "true" repeater for Technical English courses regardless of the reasons. Any students who have not yet taken this course, including returning students from school leaves (過年次生）and transfer students（編入生) , will be assinged to a regular class offered in Period 1 to Period 4 on Thursdays or Fridays. All repeating students, returning students from leaves, and transfer students who have problems with placement assignment should fill up a form provided in the following webpage, TES Info-Site (技術英語部会総合案内サイト), and submit it online. The results of class placement will be sent to the relevant students via UEC email. 技術英語部会総合案内サイト(TES Info-Site): https://sites.google.com/gl.cc.uec.ac.jp/technical-english/ 履修登録について： 再履修クラスは、以前に同科目で不合格だった学生のみ受講できます。本科目をまだ受講していない学生は、理由の如何に関わらず、再履修生とは認められません。過年次生や編入生を含む、再履修生とは看做されないすべての学生は、木曜日または金曜日の1限から4限に開講される所属プログラムのクラスに割り当てられます（上級技術英語授業に参加する学生を除く）。 再履修生、過年次生、および時間割上の問題がある編入生は、下記技術英語部会総合案内サイト (TES Info-Site)からフォームに記入して申請する必要があります。クラス分けの結果は、フォーム申請後にUECメールで連絡されます。 技術英語部会総合案内サイト(TES Info-Site): https://sites.google.com/gl.cc.uec.ac.jp/technical-english/ 2. Your participation in class is one of the most important elements of your overall achievement in this course. You must try to use English in class and participate actively in class activities required by the teachers. Inappropriate use of Japanese in class will be considered unacceptable behaviors and could lead to lower final grades. In addition, you are expected to make contributions to group activities and collaborate with your peers for research, presentations or any other collaborative tasks. |
