READING/WRITING AND CRITICAL THINKING

              Syllabus Design

In my syllabus, I like to stress these thinking processes: 

To know:

Students will know the basics of writing and the major concepts of grammar

 

To apply:

Students will develop a skill to apply their knowledge through exercises and intensive communication

 

To recognize:

Students will be able to recognize writing patterns, forms and purpose. They will also recognize, through exercises, what is effective and what is ineffective

 

To extrapolate:

Students will acquire the skill to infer unknown facts from given information and apply their new found knowledge beyond just simple tasks

 

To communicate:

Students will acquire the skill to communicate what they know clearly, logically, and accurately, in writing.
