概要

Building on the themes explored in the first semester, we will continue our conversation about America and then turn our attention towards the UK, Australia and New Zealand. We will end our year looking at India and Nigeria where English is the official language. This semester we will create partnership/presentation groups. Groups will create short current events presentations that will be presented in the main Zoom session. The presentations will focus on issues impacting English speaking countries. In the first half of the semester, groups will work together to develop material before presentations begin around Week 8 and continue until the end of the semester. * Students wishing to retake this course are required to email the instructor before the first class.
