OBJECTIVES
THE COURSE
OUTLINE(CONT’D)
A. COURSE DESCRIPTION
1. This course is especially designed to enable the students to gain acquired language
abilities and competencies to achieve the CEFRL, (2018) (Common European
Framework of Reference for Languages) B1 level outcomes and get ready for B2
course. Level B1 corresponds to independent users of the language, i.e., those who have
the necessary fluency to communicate without effort with the speakers of the target
language.
2. it is also designed to accommodate the necessities of UMN to establish standards for
the learner/user of English and to anticipate the general trend of internalization or
globalization that UMN is now facing so that the students of UMN can have an
international perspective and are highly competent in their fields of study, in addition
to having an entrepreneurial spirit and moral character, which are aligned with the
UMN vision. In this context, therefore, speaking production and interaction are given
the utmost emphasis throughout the program.

A. COURSE DESCRIPTION
3. The course approach is based on the notion of proficiency – the increasing ability to communicate
and operate effectively in the target language. The course will cover communicative activities and
competencies based on vocabulary, grammar and the four skills of language learning (listening,
reading(reception), speaking and writing (production) through face-to-face lessons (14 weeks) and 2
asynchronous sessions
4. The descriptions of this level are skills-based and take the form of Can/ Able to Do statements.
These descriptions of ability focus on communicative purposes and make for a very practical
approach, which looks at what people can/able t0 do – rather than on specific linguistic knowledge.
All teaching - learning interactions and instructions must always be conducted in English to provide
optimal exposure to the target language being learned and students learn using a flipped classroom
approach in which they view digitized or online lectures/ self-study materials as pre-class homework,
then spend in-class time engaged in active learning experiences such as discussions, peer teaching,
presentations, projects.
