Course Syllabus
Abstract
The discipline refers to the variable educational tracks offered to Bachelor’s degree students as an option while they master the optional course of English in accordance with the “Concept of the Development of English-language Communicative Competence of HSE Students”. The ESP course "English for Journalism and Media" for2nd-year Bachelor's students explores the following topics: "Society and Media", "Digital Media", "News Production", "Three Ps: Pre-production, Production, Post-production", "Ethics and Laws in Media". Apart from a strong focus on mastering relevant and most frequently used subject-specific vocabulary and key terminology through communication practice, the course provides an empirically based understanding of the discourse and language used in the target ESP variety by involving students in projects related to media production. The course is also aimed at developing the four major sets of language skills — listening, reading, writing, and speaking through various tasks (both in standard and creative formats) based on the communicative approach to foreign-language teaching. Moreover, the course also provides task-based activities such as projects, most of which simulate workplace assignments and help students to practice them prior to the real working experience. The prerequisite level of English for students willing to take the course is B2 or higher (according to CEFR).
