Part-time Faculty______________________________________________________________________________●Course Purpose
This course aims to help students write a well-structured research paper in English and expand their
vocabulary and expression list relating to academic writing.
By the end of the course, students will be able to:- explain the basic structure of a research paper- explain the characteristics of each component- use vocabulary adequately- use expressions adequately- choose the most relevant citation style- write a mini research paper●Prerequisite Subjects"English (basic)" and "English (intermediate)" (or equivalent)●Course Topics
English is the language of instruction in this course.
After reviewing the basics of academic writing, students will understand the fundamental structure of theresearch paper. Students will improve their vocabulary and expressions to write a well-structured paper as
they analyze sample research papers. Additionally, students will understand the citation styles by exploring
the descriptions in the instructions for authors in the academic journals of their choice. In the classroom
activities, students will exchange ideas, give an oral presentation, practice their writing skills, and give
feedback to each other.
1. Basics of academic writing in English 1: Paragraph writing
2. Basics of academic writing in English 2: Making an outline
3. Fundamental structure of research paper: Structural analysis
