Sommario/riassunto |
|
Academic Literacy for Law students: a content-based approach is a skills-based course aimed at first-year law students who are studying in English and simultaneously acquiring it. Each lesson is based on a reading passage that constitutes authentic, relevant legal content. The activities included in each lesson provide an opportunity to practise the academic skills needed in the law faculty. The course focuses on the progressive development of reading, writing, note-taking, listening and speaking skills. There is a strong emphasis on building the vocabulary needed in legal studies.-- |
