The aim of this programme is to help prepare you for your further study. You will get the most out of your time with us if you understand that high quality education is a two-way activity in which all students must engage.

5 Welcome by Director of Programmes We would all like to wish you a warm welcome to BPP University College. We hope very much that you will find your stay with us enjoyable and useful. This programme has been designed with great care and based on many years experience of preparing students for higher education study, and particularly for those students who are returning to study and perhaps need that little extra support to further their education or career aspirations We are familiar with the differing needs of the many types of people who come to us for tuition. At the same time we really value your comments and suggestions as it is important that you keep us informed of your own particular needs. You will find that BPP University College is a busy place and enjoys an excellent and eclectic mix of both UK and international students. As a result you will meet people from many cultures and contexts and we hope that you will enjoy and benefit from the opportunity of this diversity. You will learn best if you are happy and comfortable. So do not stay silent if you are worried about something, or if you have a problem. We all wish you a very happy stay and look forward to working with you. Paul Evans Paul Evans Director of Programmes, School of Foundation and English Language Studies 5

7 INTRODUCTION TO THE PROGRAMME PRE-SESSIONAL ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND COMMUNICATION SKILLS General Information School Level Credit Value Contact Hours Programme(s) Module Leader Related Modules Pre-requisites Co-requisites Post-requisites Excluded Combinations External Accrediting Body Business School N/A None 200 Hours (10 weeks) Pre Study UG and PG Paul Evans None None BPP UG or PG Programme None None Introduction The module will provide students with essential skills for undertaking academic study of business, management or law through the medium of English within the context of British universities. Students will be offered the chance to improve their command of English overall and in the academic setting specifically. This will be done through progressive practice and enhancement of the students reading, writing, speaking and listening skills relevant to the fields of business management and/or legal studies. An emphasis will be put on the relevance of the teaching methods, materials and assessment to the needs of students aiming to undertake university level study in the UK in the immediate future. Teaching methods and assignments in this course will simulate typical expectations in university courses: this will be done progressively starting from a partial and building up to an almost complete match. Formative feedback will be provided throughout the course aiming to improve students performance in the summative assessment. Equally, the programme will equip students with the necessary Study Skills: a number of fundamental computer programmes used in university studies (MS Word, Power Point, Excel) will be introduced through hands-on sessions in computer classes; students will go 7
8 through a series of various study skills (learning styles, reading, critical thinking, analytical etc.) self-assessment and self-audit exercises and establish a personal programme of skills development to undertake individually. Employability skills will be introduced in this module as well (such as CV and Cover Letter writing and practice for job interviews). Finally, the aim of a Pre-Sessional programme at a UK university is to introduce international students to the British culture and assist them in adjusting to the everyday realities of the modern British life, so that they can begin the academic year with this task minimized and fully apply themselves to their university studies. This cultural element will be applied in the UK Culture and Life in London module, where students will visit a number of venues for further learning and practical application of their cultural knowledge. Educational Aims This programme aims to: Provide students with essential language skills for undertaking university level study of business, law, management or finance through the medium of English within the context of British universities. Provide students with an opportunity to increase their knowledge of English grammar and vocabulary relevant to their chosen fields of university study and develop their reading, writing, speaking and listening skills in the academic setting. Provide students with new (or enhance the already existing) communicative skills based on the use of modern technology currently used in universities worldwide (e.g. Internet-based reading, listening, viewing and discussions). Familiarize students with basic conventions of academic discussions oral and written and academic writing style. Enhance their analytical and debating skills. Provide students with presentational skills (both oral and written) relevant to academic studies generally and in their chosen field of study in particular. Familiarize international students with fundamental elements of British culture and life in London, in particular, in order to assist their assimilation into the UK culture for the duration of their studies and possibly beyond. 8

11 II. Study Skills Formative: On-going assessment will be undertaken for each aspect of study skill areas such as computer and presentation skills on an on-going basis. No summative assessments are planned for this element of the course which will vary according to the needs of the cohort. UK Culture and Life in London This element of the module is assessed through participation only. A diary of visits will be required to be compiled by the student named London Life documenting observations and feedback. Indicative Reading To develop your skills in finding, accessing and analysing business information, data and knowledge you are encouraged to explore all sources of information to drive and enhance your learning (books, academic and professional journals, online resources, etc.). Below is an indicative list of reading that you may find helpful in your studies; more specific readings may be utilized throughout the module. Seminal Works Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English (new edit), Harlow, Pearson Education Ltd Books and Texts Hamp-Lyons, L Study Writing: A Course in Written English for Academic Purposes Glendinning, E Study Reading: A Course in Reading Skills for Academic Purposes Lynch, T Study Listening: A course in listening to lectures and note-taking (2 nd ed.) Cambridge, CUP Murphy, R English Grammar in Use. Cambridge, CUP Norbury, P Britain Culture Smart! The Essential Guide to Customs and Culture, London: Kuperard Schmitt D. & Schmitt N Focus on Vocabulary: Mastering the Academic Word List, Pearson Education Academic and Professional Articles Students will be strongly encouraged to use journal articles relevant to their areas of specialisation in order to develop their reading and comprehension skills. Online Resources Students will be strongly encouraged to use online resources relevant to their areas of specialisation, in order to develop their reading and comprehension skills. 11
12 INDICATIVE OUTLINES The English Language and Communication Skills module is organised as follows (the division of the various skills and hours is to be understood as an average estimate per week and can be adjusted on a week-by-week basis as required by specific activities and the needs of the group): Language Development: Grammar and Academic Vocabulary Listening & Speaking 8 (hrs/week) 4 (hrs/week) Reading & Writing 4 (hrs/week) Study Skills 4 (hrs/week) Cultural Life Ad Hoc (hrs/week) In-sessional English - The UK Culture and Life in London module is delivered in either two consecutive 2-hour sessions (where the first one is a class lecture and the second one is an organised visit to a venue), or a 4-hour long session fully dedicated to a venue visit. 12
13 Topic Language Development: Grammar and Academic Vocabulary Listening & Speaking Outline Language development component is designed to improve students range and control of grammar and professional vocabulary with some pronunciation work as well. The focus is on developing accurate language use. The teaching strategy of the module is to: Ensure the focus is on accuracy of grammar and vocabulary use Select material taught after the initial assessment (depending on the established needs of a particular group) Set and check homework regularly Check progress through tests The course content is largely dictated by the needs of the group, as well as business or legal vocabulary related to management/finance/law modules studied in each term. The aim of this component is to help students acquire or enhance the necessary skills to learn effectively from lectures and seminars, while actively participating in the latter. Students will build up on this by utilising the media (radio, TV, Internet): by the end of the course they should be able to understand auditory reports in the news and professional media and synthesize the main information from them on a par with a native English-speaking university student. The teaching strategy of the module is to: make students listen to university level lectures, help them understand the material through pre- and post-listening group exercises; teach students to take effective notes while listening; encourage peer-learning through discussions and note-comparing; teach students to organize their notes into coherent lecture outlines; enhance students speaking and debating skills during pre- and post-listening exercises that also aim to expand their general vocabulary. Reading The recommended book is Lynch, T. Study Listening: A course in listening to lectures and note-taking (2 nd ed.) Cambridge, CUP. Teaching will also be based on the current radio, TV and Internet offerings to help students relate to current political, economical and social issues, as well as the current state of their field of study. The aim of this component is to improve the overall ability of students to understand written English and develop their skills in reading both academic and general business texts. The emphasis is more on developing detailed comprehension and linguistic knowledge than on developing reading strategies (which is covered in the Study Skills component), though the latter will be referred to. The teaching strategy of the module is to: Improve students overall ability in understanding written English Develop students skills in reading both academic and general business texts Improve students reading fluency Develop students vocabulary Teach students to relate their purposes to their ways of reading Teach students to understand writer s intentions and to read critically The recommended textbook for this component is Oshima, A. & Hogue, A. Writing Academic English. Pearson, Longman. Relevant professionally related texts for individual and class reading, as well as for reading comprehension tests, will also be chosen from the media to help students relate to current political, economical and social issues, as well as the current state of their field of study. 13
14 Writing Study Skills UK Culture and Life in London Students will also be required to read subject specific articles online: discussions will be set up and links provided on the college system. Students will need to make obligatory postings to the discussion boards for each article. The aim of the writing component is to provide an overall introduction to the written academic style and ensure its sufficient practice by students. The course will open with an assessment of the students writing skills and then provide an overview of basic elements of academic writing (such as structure and coherence; professional use of source material through direct quoting, paraphrase and summary; expression of the author s voice in academic texts etc.). All these elements will require practice through written exercises in class and homework. Essays will be written in several stages (interrupted by sessions of teacher-supervised peer-editing). Students will practice writing such types of essay structures as compare/contrast, reason/consequence, and argumentative essay. The course familiarises students with the process of planning and drafting a text, and incorporating revisions which result from peer feedback, as well as feedback from the teacher. Study Skills component is designed to help international students understand the academic requirements of and cope with the study process at a UK university. Key cultural and professional expectations will be explained, as well as strategies to deal with them; online self-testing and practical exercises will be part of the course aiming to help students understand their potential shortcomings and deal with them before they embark on their university course. A number of hands-on computer workshops will be delivered with the view of (re)introducing the fundamental computer programmes used by university students in the field of business and law (MS Word, Power Point, and Excel). Oral presentation skills will be taught and practiced in group and individual presentations. The aim of this component is to assist international students in adjusting to the UK culture and life in the British capital before they embark on their university course. This cultural module will be taught through two types of classes. One is via interactive class sessions, where cultural and behavioural guidelines will be presented to students and questions will be answered. These class sessions will be then supported by field trips to various venues: those of basic everyday importance (bank, post-office, Tube station, etc.) and those of cultural/educational meaning (cinema, museum, theatre, Houses of Parliament, etc.). As this module does not have any formal methods of assessment (students will receive their grade based on attendance and participation only), the assumption is that the atmosphere in class will be even more relaxed, friendly and encouraging than during more formal sessions in other components. This is to ensure that students are fully equipped for life in London during their course of study and the college is aware of those potentially at risk of cultural misconceptions/struggling to live independently in a new country, so that they can be monitored during their first term of study as well. 14
