Introduction to ESL Elective 2: English for Study



In this elective students explore the kinds of texts that are widely used in formal learning situations. They respond to and compose texts appropriate to particular learning situations relevant to students’ needs and interests. They consider what these texts imply about the nature of learning institutions and their requirements.

Students are to supplement this study with texts of their own choosing related to the elective. The support document, Studying in English Selecting this link will take you to an external site., provides exemplars of types of texts and may further supplement students’ study of this elective.
