活动日期和时间: 2016-5-12, 星期四, 从 下午6:30 到 下午8:30

地点: 朝阳区呼家楼京广中心 2801室北京美国中心


本次活动将用英文进行。

EducationUSA 将举办一场关于英语学习的讲座,本次讲座将讲述三个方面的不同内容,包括STEM相关专业的英语学习,学术写作诚信问题,以及课堂上的合作与沟通技巧。

在第一个环节中,来自于波士顿大学英语中心的主讲人将为有志学习STEM相关专业的同学们讲述如何在这些领域提高英语,以便能够在美国学习期间能够更好的了解这些专业知识。

在第二个环节中,听众将会了解到美国的学术写作规则。很多留学生在美国学习的时候都会在学术写作方面遇到“诚信问题”,甚至因此而遭到惩罚。其实很多时候他们并不是真的抄袭,而是因为他们不是很熟悉美国高校的校园写作规则。这里,主讲人会为听众们讲述美国学术写作技巧与学术诚信的相关信息,为即将赴美的同学了解美国校园的学术写作要求以及如何规避抄袭情况的出现提供指导。

在第三个环节中,主讲人将与您讨论课堂上的沟通技巧。与很多其他的国家不同,美国的课堂文化注重参与和互动。同学之间,师生之间的互动往往是学习过程中的关键。在讨论中,大家共同学习,共同进步。因此,主讲人会为大家介绍一些课堂技巧,帮助大家能够在这样的互动与沟通中更好的表达自己并取得成功。所以,在讲座结束后,听众们会了解在这样的课堂的氛围里,如何做到与其他人在群组讨论中配合共同完成课堂内容。

 

Event Details:

English Language and Studying in the U.S. 

The program will be conducted in English.

EducationUSA is hosting a presentation about English language usage and academic writing. During this session, three presenters from the Boston University Center for English Language and Orientation Program will talk about learning English for the STEM fields, academic integrity, and communication in the American Classroom.

In the first session, the presenters will describe the benefits of specialized English language study for those who are intending to enter STEM degree programs in the USA. They will demonstrate how intensive practice in presenting, writing and completing projects in English provides a solid foundation for student success in technological and engineering degree programs. Participants will gain an understanding of how they can best prepare themselves for STEM study in the U. S., and will learn the criteria for determining whether a preparation program is right for them.

In the second session, participants will learn about plagiarism in the American university system and why plagiarism is considered a problem as well as why citing sources is important. Many international students in the U. S. experience challenges with university academic integrity policies and this can lead to disciplinary action if they break academic rules, even if they do so inadvertency. Plagiarism in particular is a difficult topic for many international students to understand. In this session, students will learn methods for paraphrasing in English in order to help avoid plagiarism.

In the third session, the presenter will discuss collaboration in the classroom sharing ideas, asking for clarification, interacting with professors and classmates.   In the U.S., teaching and learning in the American classroom includes methods and techniques that may be unfamiliar to students from other countries. The U. S. classroom may be more student-centered, and students may be expected to learn from each other as well as from the teacher in a collaborative atmosphere. The presenters will then describe how to communicate successfully in the classroom, with their student peers and with professors. Participants will leave with a deeper understanding of how the American classroom works, and they will team strategies for thriving in the American classroom environment.
