1504 Media English 2
Campus: Unter den Eichen
This is an optional course for Media Management students who
would like to continue improving their English and, in particular, their
ability to make presentations in English, using common Anglo-Saxon presentation
techniques. Building on their presentation experience in the Media English
1 course, students will focus on learning the language and skills they need
to move fluently through a presentation. Class participants will prepare
and give an individual as well as a longer group presentation. The topics
for the group presentations will be chosen in cooperation with one of the
media program’s divisions (management, design, technology). Students
will also participate in a course blog, analyzing TED talks. In
addition, the ability to speak freely and fluently will continue to be developed
through group discussions.
Students will receive a grade, based upon active participation and successful
completion of all assignments (in-class presentations, blog entries/comments and peer
feedback).
This course has an attendance
requirement: students must attend 75% of all class meetings. Further absences will affect the final grade. A 15-minute late
arrival counts as an absence. Late assignments and presentations will also
affect the course grade.
