During the first week of classes, a Credit EAP Program Orientation will be conducted to provide students a clear understanding of the program’s benefits and requirements. In addition, Credit EAP students take a one-credit seminar course that helps them develop academic success skills. The seminar lasts throughout the semester and includes guest speakers from various important offices on campus. Credit EAP Courses Credit EAP students take three courses designed to provide academic language support, one seminar course designed to help ease their transition to the university, and one regular academic course chosen with the help of the Credit EAP advisor: 1. Core Language Courses (both of the following required) ENGL 140: Writing and Usage (3 credits) Writing instruction will focus on writing essays of greater length with moresophistication than at previous levels and on correctly incorporating outside sources. It is believed that incorporating grammar instruction into the context of writing instruction will enhance and facilitate the acquisition of both skills. ENGL 142: Speaking and Listening (3 credits) The speaking and listening class will focus on the students’ ability to listen and respond to topics of academic interest. Students at this level will work on the proficiency needed to take mainstream academic courses at UNL; therefore, listening passages will be more academic and in authentic contexts. Speaking instruction will require the students to further practice working competently and efficiently in groups while expressing doubts, hedging, and supporting arguments. They will continue to improve their ability to give presentations in terms of length and sophistication while incorporating outside sources in a seamless manner. 6 2. Content-Based Reading Course (one of the following required) ENGL 141: Advanced Academic Reading (undeclared majors)(3 credits) Advanced Academic Reading targets the reading development for students in Credit English for Academic Purposes. Expansion of vocabulary and note taking skills for general university textbook reading will be stressed. ENGL 144: Advanced Academic Reading: Business (3 credits) The goal of this course is to prepare non-native speakers of English who are interested in business for the demands of university-level reading. Students will learn reading strategies and critical thinking skills necessary for comprehension and analysis of university-level texts. The texts in this course will focus on business topics to introduce students to concepts, vocabulary, and style specific to the field of business. ENGL 145: Advanced Academic Reading: Science and Engineering (3 credits) The goal of this class is to prepare non-native speakers of English who are interested in science and engineering for the demands of university-level reading. Students will learn reading strategies and critical thinking skills necessary for comprehension and analysis of university-level texts. The texts in this course will focus on science and engineering topics to introduce students to concepts, vocabulary, and style specific to the fields of science and engineering. ENGL 146 Advanced Academic Reading for Social Sciences: Media literacy (3 credits) The goal of this class
