  Description of the Course Material Reading Skills The reading material provides the students with a wide variety of topics from authentic tourism and archeology curricula. They are intended to trigger active class discussion, generating functional language while at the same time developing the students’ reading and cognitive skills. Each unit contains two reading selections that focus on important reading skills: getting the main idea, understanding reading structure, identifying paragraph topics, recognizing contextual reference, and making an outline as well as understanding signal words for cause and effect, comparison and contrast, chronological order, examples, classification, etc. The course material offers students a variety of reading comprehension exercises to improve their comprehension and critical thinking.

Vocabulary Skills The wide variety of vocabulary development exercises is one of the special features of the course.
  1. Guessing Meaning from Context: Students are encouraged to study and learn the vocabulary items explained in the vocabulary preview section and do the vocabulary exercises. They are also encouraged to understand the meaning of unfamiliar words and expressions by looking for context clues. Each unit includes an exercise on guessing meaning from context, which provides practice in context clues skills and highlights the unfamiliar vocabulary used in each unit.
  2. Word Forms: This type of exercises helps students build their vocabulary by learning the functions of prefixes and suffixes as well as word form usage.
  3. Synonyms and Antonyms: These are presented in varied formats and aim at developing students’ vocabulary.
Grammar Skills In this section, grammatical structures are introduced deductively or inductively. In some units, grammatical rules are stated with correct examples of use; in other units, the students study a number of correct examples in order to work out the rules. Ample practice of specific grammatical points as well as holistic linguistic areas are provided in every unit.   Writing Skills Throughout the course material, writing skills are given particular emphasis through recognition of patterns and techniques and production of various kinds of writing patterns. Practice includes  note-taking and outlining and putting words into meaningful sentences, writing accurate sentences. Writing activities are numerous; they range from phrases and short answer responses to complete sentences.   Speaking Skills Speaking skills range from the discussion questions based on the title and the pictures at the beginning of each unit to answering certain exercises orally. In addition, each unit concludes with discussion questions that require students to talk about topics related to the reading.   Language skills and elements, however, are practised and used in an integrated manner - that is, to read, take notes, and speak; or to read, write, and speak, etc. Effort has been made to allow for sensible and natural communication in the classroom environment, as much as possible.
