一、課程說明

The course will take the form of a flipped classroom. According to Wikipedia, flipped classroom is a form
of blended learning in which students learn new content online by watching video lectures, usually at
home, and what used to be homework (assigned problems) is now done in class with teachers offering
more personalized guidance and interaction with students, instead of lecturing. Those students who have
take *** are encourage to review the course materials, while those who have not taken the course are
required to read the materials.

The main goal of this course is to provide graduate students opportunity to practice the craft of academic
writing and get their hand dirty. Each student will set the goal of finishing writing a 8 pages double-
column draft not unlike those submitted to an international conference, focusing on his/her own research.
If you are not actively working on a research problem, you will be provide a real-life paper and are asked to
revise the paper to fit the mold of an good model paper.

Students will also work on improving their vocabulary using with with some research-based supplemental
materials.
