English is a linguistic, cultural and literary subject. The course requires that students understand each component individually and collectively.
Active participation is expected throughout the entire study process.
Students are required to engage with course content through self-study outside of the organized teaching sessions, and through group work and the digital learning platform.
Students will be assessed continuously throughout the course, and they will receive oral and written feedback from course instructors and peers.
English will be used for both teaching and communication. Thus, it is expected that students use the language actively during teaching, and in written and oral communication with peers and course instructors.
