英文閱讀寫作訓練週記

12/10 L3-Honor Class

​   這週的課程是寫作練習，Tutor 準備了PPT教材一步一步教學生如何寫出思路清晰、強而有力的段落，並強調identify sources的重要性，尤其在美國，引用別人的文章或想法，要是沒有提供出處會造成嚴重的剽竊行為plagiarism，如何正確的引述及支撐自己的主張是本堂課主要的學習要點，先以sample paragraph讓同學們熟悉重點句子以便寫出流暢的段落，最後請大家練習作文，題目是How do we balance environmental impact and economic gain? 如何平衡環境破壞及經濟成長？Tutor準備了一些與本議題相關的報章雜誌，讓學生直接練習及加深豐富的背景知識。
