説明
Business English II is a mandatory class for second year students of two Advanced Courses in the Engineering Department, at Hakodate National College of Technology (NCT) in Hakodate, Japan. The class has a clear teaching objective relating six educational goals of the school, with the overall aim of producing engineers who possess a multifaceted ability to communicate in English. In tangible form, the teaching goal is that all students will be able to do their final presentations in the English language on their engineering research, which would be acceptable for an international conference. When first proposed, it was said to be "impossible in a big class." This paper describes how the syllabus has evolved through Initial, Intralaboratory and Integrating phases, and has been improved to achieve the teaching goal of Business English II by tracing the innovations and changes in the syllabus over the past nine years.
