Details As coordinator for the Advanced English II level I coordinated the materials development for both the English Debate course and Academic Writing course. Innovations included adding a Cambridge style speaking test and core timed summary writing test. Most importantly , however , was to re-evaluate the linking between the Debate and Academic Writing courses , and the scaffolding of pre-requisite discourses for debate in the Academic Writing Course , in order to promote the language development in the CEFR B2 band of proficiency.
