Assessment criteria and course unit guidelines

Students will be assessed on oral and written work. Weighting will be as follows:

 

writing test  50%

individual participation in debate(s)  20%

oral, written task-based assignments and active participation in class  25%

attendance  5%

 Since assessment will be conducted on a regular basis, any task that is not submitted when due and/or any form of plagiarism (including representing anyone's work as your own or receiving any unauthorised assistance) will be given a zero. .

 Worker students may opt for continuous assessment (in which case they will have to comply with all the assessment criteria set for regular students) OR sit an examination to be held in January 2017. The examination will focus on the contents of the syllabus adopted for English .

Semester calendar

The writing test will be held on December 12. Dates for debates will be set in class.

 Student's Workbook and bibliography

A Student's Workbook was made available from the red photocopy house at the beginning of the term. Students are expected to have dictionaries and grammar reference books appropriate for their level.

 Tutorials

Tutorials are made by appointment with the teacher.
