ENGLISH COMMUNICATION for Chemistry Learners
The purpose of the course is to equip students with the necessary skills to effectively communicate in personal, social, and professional settings. The ability to share thoughts, emotions, and ideas is essential for maintaining relationships and fostering social and cultural understanding. With globalization and cultural diversity, clear and effective communication has become even more crucial. The course aims to achieve this by adopting an interactive mode of teaching and learning, with a focus on various dimensions of communication skills, including language, speaking, reading, and writing skills. Additionally, the course recognizes that communication is not only an art but also a science, with several scientific principles underlying effective communication. By the end of the course, students should have developed their communication skills to a level that enables them to excel in both personal and professional interactions.
The ultimate goal of the course is to empower students to communicate effectively in various contexts, thereby improving their personal and professional interactions. The recommended readings are only suggestive, and students are encouraged to explore other materials that could enhance their learning. The examination questions will not solely focus on the recommended texts, but instead assess the student's mastery of the communication skills learned throughout the course. Therefore, the course's success will not be based on rote memorization of the texts but rather on the student's ability to apply the communication skills learned in practical situations. By the end of the course, students should be able to communicate their thoughts and ideas with clarity and effectiveness, both in personal and professional settings.
