Homework 3

Revise my Comprehensible English Enhancement Plan (CEEP1.1)

Nowadays, English has become the most important communication tool over the world. As a citizen of Taiwan, a country rely on trade with foreign countries, we should ask ourselves to improve our capabilities of English; otherwise we will lose the competitiveness. But how can we learn and progress efficiently? I think there is no shortcut to succeed, but a positive way to make us progress gradually; it's just practice.

As the saying goes "Actions speak louder than words." I consider that I should be more positive; after all, it is easier to say than do. Therefore, I revised my original CEEP according to my CEF level – B1, trying to strike a balance between ideality and reality. I classify here are my revised CEEP:

l Specific Goals:

a. Pass the high-intermediate examination of GEPT next year.

b. Be able to talk to teacher and classmates fluently in English.

c. Have the capability of realizing what teacher said in class.

d. Have the ability to write down what I thought without translation software. In this way, I can present my opinion and mood in English

l Specific Actions :

a. Memorize 10 new words per day, and realize definitely how to use it.

(The reason for doing so is that I don't have sufficient quantity of vocabularies, and that is always a problem in my reading.)

b. Spend half an hour listening to the radio program of Studio Classroom everyday.

(It provides me a chance to improve my poor listening ability, and imitate foreigner's accent.)

c. Spend at least10 minutes chat with my classmates in English everyday.

(In this way, I will be accustomed to say in English, and won't be shy to speak in the class.)

d. Read an article of news per day, such as BBC, CNN, and China Post.

(It can not only improve my reading capability, but broaden my horizon)

e. Write down something interesting in my daily life, and record what I have done in carrying out my CEEP.

(Doing so, I can update my blog ceaselessly, and achieve my goal step by step.)

l Here are some websites that I want to visit:

• a. Wikipedia: http://www.wikipedia.org/
• b. AI Jazeera English: http://english.aljazeera.net/English
• c. BBC: http://www.bbc.co.uk/
• d. Tower of English Listening: http://towerofenglish.com/listening.html
• e. Studio Classroom: http://studioclassroom.com/

G5102 - Homework No.2 (Richard-陳聖勳)

My Comprehensive English Enhancement

Plan for 2007-2008 School Year

Learning method plays an important role in our lives. It affects not only the speed of absorbing knowledge, but also the memory for learning.A successful learner has enthusiasm and motivation for learning, determination to reach high standards and openness to new thinking and ideas. To be a sucessful learner, these are many items that I plan for english enhancement:

l Specific goal:

First,I hope I can know exactly what teacher say in english. Second, I expect I can read and speak more fluently. Last but not least, I anticipate that I will apply english to my daily life.

l Specific actions:

To know exactly by hearing, I'll concentrate on the class, besides I'll listen to the radio such as ICRT, BBC, and Studio Classroom an hour everyday. To promote my abilities of reading and speaking, I'll read extracurricular books with speaking from low-level to high-level (such as Reading Club), accommodating myself to the pattern of thinking in english. Listening english song, reading a part of english news paper everyday, and writing down something interesting in my blog in english, all of above are good way to apply english to my daily life.

　　Make it a habit and a priority.

　　For us, english is not noly a "foreign language" , but a communication tool with the whole world. I believe I will connect the world by learning english in one day, but before that, I should improve my english ability constantly, and enjoy in learning !
