English For Academic Purposes (Eap) Eap Preliminary - 10-Week Course Outline

ENGLISH FOR ACADEMIC PURPOSES (EAP) EAP PRELIMINARY – 10-WEEK COURSE OUTLINE
Canterbury Language Academy
ENGLISH FOR ACADEMIC PURPOSES (EAP) EAP PRELIMINARY TEACHER’S GUIDE
Hours: 20 hours face-to-face per week (Monday – Thursday) + students are recommended to complete 5 hours independent study outside of class
Duration: 10 weeks in 2 Modules - Weeks 1-5 and Weeks 6-10
Entry Level: High Intermediate (approximately equivalent to 4.5 IELTS)
Exit Level: Approximately 5.0 IELTS
Students may start in EAP Preliminary at the commencement of any 5-week teaching block. It is anticipated that most students who enter EAP Preliminary
will most likely complete the 10-week course at this level and if they achieve a final grade of Pass, may then articulate into EAP 1 to further prepare for
future tertiary study using more challenging resources. If students successfully complete the 10-week course at this level and if they achieve a final grade of
Credit or higher, they may be eligible for entry into a Diploma program at Canterbury Business College or Canterbury Institute of Technology.
Rationale
The EAP Preliminary curriculum is designed to assist students to transition between General English and Academic English studies.
While it is expected that most students will complete the 10-week course at EAP Preliminary level, it is possible that, depending on their start date at
Canterbury Language Academy, students may complete the curriculum for Weeks 6-10 of the course before studying the curriculum for Weeks 1-5. To
accommodate this situation and maximise the student’s exposure to all required learning objectives required at the EAP Preliminary level, the Weekly
curriculum has been written as stand-alone units which do not follow a sequential delivery of the Core text book Oxford EAP Intermediate. The course is
skill-based rather than theme-based. There is also repetition of key skills built into the curriculum in order to minimise any perceived disadvantage to
students commencing in the Weeks 6-10 session. Students will benefit from an explanation of the rationale behind the curriculum at the commencement
of their studies to reassure them that they will be learning all of the required skills at this level if they successfully complete the 10-week course, regardless
of whether they commence in Week 1 or Week 6 of the curriculum
Planning the Teaching Week

Teachers are responsible for planning the delivery of the curriculum and preparing the weekly schedule for the EAP Preliminary class. To ensure students
are exposed to a balance of all academic skills and the prescribed learning objectives for the EAP Preliminary course, there is a recommended breakdown of
hours dedicated to the development of language and academic skills for EAP Preliminary. ( Figure 1 ) Teachers should consider this balance of skill
breakdown when planning the lessons each week and decide the best timetable for delivering the prescribed course materials from the 10-week
curriculum. Teachers should ensure cover of the Core text resource each week as this contains many of the key learning objectives. Teachers may need to
be selective with the specific academic skills resources if time does not allow cover of all the resources. The guiding principle for selecting the resources for
the class timetable is to ensure that the stated learning objectives are addressed. There is a Sample Weekly Timetable below in Figure 2. Please note this is
a sample only and while there is flexibility in the schedule, the Daily/ Weekly Teaching Record should reflect the hours for the breakdown of skills and
timetable which supports the information in Figures 1 and 2.

Delivery of the curriculum

The teaching resources have been selected to support the key learning objectives for the EAP Preliminary course. It is expected that teachers will bring
their own particular teaching style to the delivery of these materials in class. Teachers are strongly encouraged to develop customised worksheets to
further consolidate the learning objectives of the materials and to submit them to the Director of Studies for inclusion in the Canterbury Language Academy
bank of teaching resources for future courses. Teachers are also encouraged to search for additional relevant resources from authentic sources which
consolidate the same learning objectives as outlined in the curriculum. These should also be submitted to the Director of Studies for inclusion in future
courses.

Assessment
Weekly Revision Tasks
Teachers will be required to identify and/or develop relevant review tasks for students to complete at the end of each week. Feedback on the tasks will be
provided to the students - perhaps through a class error analysis activity. Teachers are encouraged to identify students who appear to be having difficulty
with the class, the level and/or the materials an intervention strategy process to be implemented. The Director of Studies needs to be informed.
Homework Tasks
There is an expectation that students will complete homework tasks assigned by the teacher each week and will be provided with feedback.
Student-Led Group Tutorials

Students are required to research and prepare information on a current event or issue to deliver a short tutorial on the subject to small groups in class.
These tutorials will be conducted in Weeks 1 and 2, and Weeks 6 and 7. The teacher may schedule the student-led tutorials at convenient times in these
weeks, depending on the number of students in the class. If the class numbers are small, then students may have an opportunity for additional practice by
conducting two tutorials instead of one. Students should receive peer and teacher feedback on these tutorials. However, they will not be formally assessed.
Oral Presentations
Oral presentations will be scheduled to be conducted in Weeks 3-5 and Weeks 8-10. Each student is required to prepare and deliver two presentations in
the 10-week teaching session (ie one presentation during Weeks 3-5 and one presentation during Weeks 8-10) . Each presentation will be teacher assessed
according to the Presentation Assessment Guide for EAP Preliminary level.
Essays/ Reports
In each 5-week session (ie Weeks 1-5 and weeks 6-10), students are required to submit a written report and an essay (minimum word length 600 words)
which form an integral element of their final grade for the course. Some class time (during the Research scheduled hours) is available for students to
complete their research for these tasks. However, most of the preparation of the assessment tasks will need to be completed outside of class time in order
to be submitted on or before the due date. The essays and reports will be assessed according to the Essay/Report Assessment Guide for EAP Preliminary.
