A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

English for Academic Study: Listening English for academic study: Listening focuses on transcripts from actual lectures recorded in a real academic environment, and is therefore ideal for students preparing for English-medium study. The lecture extracts are taken from a range of academic fields, including banking, development economics, marketing, psychology, and linguistics. The extracts have been chosen to be accessible to a general audience, while at the same time appealing to students studying these subjects. The units are organized as follows: Listening and Lectures Introductions to Lectures Identifying Key Ideas in Lectures Note-taking Introducing New Terminology What Professors Do in Lectures Digressions Each unit has weblinks offering additional information and activities, related to both listening skills and the topics covered in the units. A dedicated website, www.englishforacademicstudy.com, offers further instructor resources.
