Content

The course is integrated into some of JYU's English-medium master’s degree programmes. It aims at developing students’ academic literacies for learning through English in their chosen field, while increasing their awareness of the benefits of a process-based approach to academic writing. Key themes include information search and management, critical reading and writing as well as academic standards and field-specific conventions in written and oral academic communication. The course provides support for reporting research in various oral and written forms and writing the master’s thesis. Individual and collaborative work is required, during which students reflect not only on their own work but also on the work of their peers. All assignments are integrated with the subject studies and follow their requirements. The course may also be integrated into a specific subject study course, in which case the assignments and requirements are directly linked to that course. 

Modes of completion

The course requires participation in contact teaching. Teaching methods may include lectures, workshops, student presentations, project work, group discussions, individual or small group tutorials and feedback sessions, etc. Collaborative and individual work is required.
