| ESOL 50 follows a content-based syllabus designed to accelerate vocabulary and grammar development in order to improve students' academic writing. Students will participate in a variety of academic tasks organized around the content, such as essay writing, oral presentations, academic lectures, and group work. These activities serve to strengthen students' language skills. ESOL 50 and its corequisite ESOL 52 serve the same cohort of students, covering similar content from different perspectives. ESOL 50 explores the content from the perspective of the individual, whereas ESOL 52 explores the content from the perspective of the group. Instructors of ESOL 50 and ESOL 52 collaborate extensively to better serve the students. The goal of both ESOL 50 and ESOL 52 is to prepare students to be successful in college-level courses. |
