syllabus for non-drama students

here is the syllabus espeically designed for those who choose not to join the drama productions and those make-up senior students.

well, as "Non-drama student" (with “#”), you are supposed to hand in

Three reading reports (this could be web-based, since all students have to join this blog) 50% (a. simply post your works here. b. create your own blog site and make a link here)

and give TWO presentations in oral and written forms ( 20% )

Each student agrees to practice typing and to take the typing test ( 30%)
please click http://www.shu.edu.tw/ and find more info there.
We'll set the time later.

the course will be held partly on-line, off-campus depending on students' performace and real contexts.

All students will be in the drama presentations and write a review for the play contest. (if any of you volunteer to help Part of the presentation, albert will not forget your credit. )

Our reading material is chosen to help students improve their knowledge in cultural and social contexts as well as enhance their english comprehension.
Here we have a website (thank to GIO's provocative ) A brief intro to Taiwan, and a vivid visual production cultural Faces of Taiwan produced by Cultural Construction Commission.

Hope all of you find it interesting in reading the lines and preparation for the reports.

when you're asked to volunteer to be student coordinator, our senior student Bird Tse (曾楷捷) stood up to help the class. A big "thank you" to him...
