Course Description
English in action is a prescribed textbook for third year General English courses from the academic year 2021-2022. The selection has been guided by three broad criteria : readability, teachability and testability of the texts. The syllabus addresses the specific needs of the final year students who are about to encounter the workings of the English language in the real world. The course now has significant features. Two units , one in each SEM V and SEM VI, focusing on the theme of gender have been included in the syllabus to highlight the need for gender equality. The two -theme based units contain texts that engage the student's attention as much by their fine use of language as by their stipulating ideas.
The syllabus in general and two units in particular seek to equip the students with the necessary language skills while acknowledging their critical thinking capabilities. The exercises and the pre-reading and post-reading activities that supplement the main texts are designed to draw the students into the text, make them read the text with understanding and insight, and encourage them to think beyond the text.
