English 03
Topic outline
-
In unit 1, discovering cleaner energy sources to power the world, we will look at alternative energy sources.
Our language goals are summarizing main ideas in a text, and using modals for suggestions.
Our content goals are learning about the science behind renewable energy sources, such as wind, solar, and hydroelectric power.
Finally, in unit 2, what might the future hold? We look at both nanotechnology and the scientific community.
Our language goals are using modal verbs to discuss future probability, and how to cite sources in research.
Our content goals are understanding the role of nanotechnology in reducing climate change,

Welcome to Unit 1 of the English course! More and more governments and corporations are funding engineers to create and build new energy systems that can limit the effects of climate change. Many of these energy systems come from renewable energy sources, such as, wind, solar (sun), and hydroelectric (water) power. In this unit, you will explore the science behind these systems. You will also learn how to summarize the main ideas of readings and how to use modal verbs to make a suggestion.

Welcome to Unit 02 of the English courses! In this unit, you will investigate practical advances in Nanotechnology that help slow down climate change. An example of this is turning light into heat. You will also learn how the scientific community works together to create new discoveries through expert interviews and readings. Lastly, you will develop your own research skills by learning how to choose good sources and cite them in your research.
-
By the end of this unit, you will:
· Demonstrate understanding of potential uses of Nanotechnology
· Choose good sources for research
· Understand importance of citing sources in own research
· Use future possibility and probability modals
· Read, watch, and listen to a variety of texts and multimedia sources.
· Demonstrate your understanding of these texts and key course ideas through comprehension check quizzes, a discussion board and a peer-reviewed assignment.
