Class time in the first term will be spent on highly structured lectures with time each week for in-class discussion. Topics to be covered will include the evolution of the American family, current issues in American education, etc. During the second term, the students will write a five-page research paper in English. (Some class time will be spent developing the skills needed to do this.) Each student will be expected to give two in-class presentations - a research proposal and a report of work-in-progress. All lectures and written work will be in English. |
