LS 202 - Intermediate Academic Listening and Speaking II


The Intermediate Academic Listening and Speaking II core course is the second of six integrated course sequence that develops needed academic skills within the context of different academic areas and built-in academic vocabulary workshops. The listening strand focuses on numerical information, getting main idea from the introduction, finding examples in groups, and dates. The speaking strand develops critical speaking strategies such as taking turns, giving reasons or examples, working cooperatively, giving and getting feedback, and taking a survey. Comparing sources of information, using timelines, and synthesizing are critical thinking strategies highlighted in this course. Test-taking strategies skills include listening for reasons, brainstorming possible vocabulary and a review on lecture notes. This course is required for program completion.
