Description
The aim of the course is to give students an opportunity to revise their survival skills and acquire more sophisticated ways of dealing with practical matters. This includes revision and consolidation of vocabulary, grammar, morphology, syntax and phonetics. The course is designed for intermediate level students requiring the language for studying abroad for a short period (e.g. 2-3 months). The course comprises knowledge and understanding both of the structure of the Japanese language and its use in academic environments, such as attending cultural events and taking notes related to their studies. The course covers academic culture and university life to prepare students for a short study period in Japanese-speaking countries. Students will develop critical thinking and read academic texts. This will be related back to the student鈥檚 degree subject. The course will enhance knowledge and use of linguistic structures (a variety of styles and registers from a range of appropriate authentic academic material). Various transferable skills will also be further developed.
