AE26 Reading and Writing at University - 课程主页

Reading Guide / 阅读说明

这是 UBC Canvas 上的官方 Academic Essentials 非学分预备课，不是之前那门非官方暑期大学写作课。本课程笔记以 Canvas 页面、课程附件和视频 transcript 为依据；quiz、discussion 与 assignment 只提炼训练目标，不保存私人作答或代写可提交内容。

Course Throughline / 课程主线

University reading and writing are ways of entering an existing scholarly conversation and making a situation-appropriate contribution.

大学读写不是复述资料或套用固定模板，而是先理解某个学术情境中已经发生的讨论，再根据 discipline、audience、purpose 与 genre 作出合适的贡献。

Course Structure / 课程结构

课程由 Getting Started、六个正式模块和 Course Completion 组成。每个正式模块预计约三小时，通常以一个 check-in 任务收束。

1. Module 1: Welcome to the University
2. Module 2: Listening Actively and Reading Critically
3. Module 3: Information Literacy
4. Module 4: Writing in the University
5. Module 5: Speaking in the University
6. Module 6: Capstone Project

六个模块与最终 Capstone 均已完成；所有模块链接都指向实际笔记，不保留未来空链接。
