NESL 52A - Introduction to Reading and Vocabulary Building

0 units
5 hours lecture
Recommended Preparation: qualification by assessment
Noncredit
This is an introductory course designed to transfer literacy in the first language to English by building basic reading skills and expanding vocabulary. Through the use of reading texts, reading kits, main idea exercises, and skimming and scanning activities, the foundation skills are developed through regular application. The aim of the course is to identify and reinforce good reading habits and to free students from over-dependence on dictionaries with a focus on context as key to meaning. The content of NESL 42A, a noncredit course, is identical to the content of ESL 52A, a credit course. NESL 42A shall be offered with ESL 52A as a dual-roster course.

Note: Pass/no pass only.
