Abstract

«English for General Academic Purposes. Advanced–2» course caters to the first-year HSE undergraduates at a B2+/ C1 (CEFR) level who aim to enhance their English language command for University study and research as well as intercultural communication competence. In compliance with “Concept of Development of Foreign-Language Communicative Competence of HSE Students” and “Regulations for Interim and Ongoing Assessments of Students at National Research University Higher School of Economics”, the course meets students’ multidisciplinary needs, while developing English-language communicative, integrated, critical and creative thinking competences, and digital literacy. Thus, students are exposed to a variety of rich authentic print and audio texts, organizational structures and tasks employed in mainstream academic environments and practices. Essentially, the course is targeted at building students’ core receptive (reading and listening) and productive (writing and speaking) knowledge and skills belonging to the academic domain at B2+/ C1 (CEFR). This would enable students to extract and process key information for further integrating relevant source materials and presenting argumentative oral (monologue, group discussion, presentation) and written (‘opinion’ and ‘advantages and disadvantages’ essays) texts. To successfully master the programme materials, the course provides for independent work on the online platform SMART LMS. To be admitted to the Course, students must show at least 60 points on the entry test. There are no blocking controls.
