Abstract

ESP for Asian Studies aims at consolidating and expanding students’ English language knowledge and skills for professional and academic cross-cultural communication as well as fostering critical thinking skills (including information awareness), which are formed based on the material topical for Eastern studies major.The content-based course is built around a set of language and critical thinking skills which are developed while studying authentic multimedia texts on a wide range of professionally relevant topics including historical, cultural, religious, socio-economic and political developments of the traditional and modern East. This comprehensive approach focuses on developing ability to interact in English in the context of cross-cultural professional communication as well as acquiring knowledge on topical issues in their specific areas of study. Due to instruction techniques, learning is both practice and learner oriented as students are given ample opportunities to research topics of their individual professional and academic interests and present their findings within the course frame. The course is conducted in English.
