English for Social Analysis

О курсе

Bring your analytical English skills into social topics that require careful judgment and comparison. You begin with psychology, exploring the science of happiness as you evaluate a speaker's credibility, judge the strength of arguments, distinguish facts from opinions, and form critiques supported by evidence. You then move into sociology, where you read about intergenerational workplace dynamics and examine how multiple authors build their arguments, what evidence they use, and where their reasoning is strong or weak. Through videos, readings, vocabulary, comprehension checks, instructional activities, skill practice, interactions, quizzes, and evaluation tasks, you practice synthesizing perspectives instead of considering each source in isolation. By the end of the course, you will be able to critique speakers and authors more confidently and write or discuss clearer critical summaries in English.
