1. Activity focus and purpose : To encourage faculty members to promote EMI teaching activities and to enhance the English communication skills of teachers, staff, and students, the College has organized the “On-Campus Foreign Instructor Program and EMI English Conversation Sessions for Faculty, Staff, and Students.” This activity invites foreign lecturers to engage with the College’s faculty, staff, and students in English discussions on various topics, encouraging participants to share their personal perspectives and reflections. The goal is to improve participants’ English speaking and expression skills. The content is rich and diverse, closely connected to university life, and designed to resonate with students—further stimulating their motivation and confidence in practical English communication. 2. Activity features and implementation : This activity was themed “Popular Culture” and aimed to guide students in using English to share their favorite music, films, social media, and current trends, thereby enhancing their English communication skills. During the activity, students played their favorite music and shared their listening experiences, which facilitated interactive discussions. In addition, guided questions—such as introducing their favorite online influencers and describing popular trends they have encountered—encouraged students to express themselves by integrating their personal experiences. Overall, the activity effectively strengthened students’ ability to communicate in English in practical contexts and enhanced their understanding of popular culture and cross-cultural communication. 3. Quality indicators of activities I really enjoyed the activity because it encouraged me to talk about topics from our life stories in a casual way. In daily life, we rarely have opportunities to do this. To communicate clearly and make myself understood, I had to look up the correct words and accurate vocabulary on the Internet, which helped me make progress. |
