TE10303 TEACHING OF LISTENING & SPEAKING
UNDERGRADUATE PROSPECTUS 2013/2014
This course aims to build on the principles of communicative teaching with particular focus on oral
language. The structure of spoken language is examined. The underlying theories of oral communication
will be explored including communication theories, ritual and social events, schema theory, and speech
acts. It will reinforce the concept of setting criteria for successful language learning. The teaching of
listening and speaking is central to good language teaching since they are important for both classroom
exposure and lifelong language needs. The topics covered include theoretical background to oral
communication as well as the teaching methodology for listening and speaking.

TE10503 TEACHING WRITING SKILLS
This course aims to develop course participants’ personal as well as professional skills in writing, since
they need to be competent writers themselves before they can impart the skills to their learners later
on. The course focuses more on the techniques of teaching writing in terms of approaches to teaching
writing, planning the writing class, techniques of teaching the different types of writing, and evaluation
and feedback on learners’ writing. Thus, while the first part of the course will lay the foundation for
participants to be competent in writing, the second part of the course will help them to become competent
teachers of writing.

TE10203 SECOND LANGUAGE ACQUISITION
This course aims to understand how learners learn and it is not the same as research into language
teaching. SLA, in this light, should become an essential point of reference for those involved in educational
activities as well as researchers looking at how to facilitate the learning process. By virtue of the fact
that language itself is complex, SLA has become a broadly-based field and it now involves studying the
complex pragmatic interactions between learners and between learners and native speakers, examining
how non-native language ability develops, stabilizes, and undergoes attrition (forgetting, loss), carrying
out an analysis and interpretation of all aspects of learner language with the help of current linguistic
theory and developing theories that are specific to the field of SLA that aim to account for the many facets
of non-native language and behavior.

The Phonology of English is a course that explains how English is pronounced in the accent normally chosen
as the standard for people learning English spoken in England. This course presents this information in
context of a general theory about speech sounds and how they are used in language. This is necessary
for anyone who needs to understand the principles regulating the use of sounds in spoken English.
Due to the confusing nature of English spelling it is particularly important to learn to think of English
pronunciation in terms of phonemes rather than letters of the alphabet and transcribe them using the
special symbols to represent them. The course then moves on to look at larger units of speech such as
the syllable, and at aspects of speech such as stress and intonation. Students will then be exposed to
skills needed to analyse and evaluate speech in English with greater understanding and depth and plan
appropriate teaching and learning activities that can be carried out in the classroom.

TE10403 TEACHING OF READING
UNDERGRADUATE PROSPECTUS 2013/2014
This course will enable student teachers to understand the complex processes of reading, and of learning
to read in a foreign language. Reading is an important skill in situations where exposure to a language
may be limited. It is also a key academic skill. This course is structured into three parts. Part one presents
the principles about reading, texts and teaching; part two looks more closely at some of the theoretical
issues and how they affect reading teaching; and part three focuses on the importance of extensive
reading, the choice of materials and the way courses and lessons are planned, taught and assessed.

TE20103 INTRODUCTION TO SEMANTICS
This course is intended to provide a working understanding of Semantics at an introductory level. The
understanding of semantics for the purpose of English Language teaching will be the focus. First the field
of semantics and its place in linguistics will be covered at an introductory level. Topics of relevance will
then be dealt with in greater depth. The application of an understanding of semantics in classroom TESL
will then be looked at in more detail.

School of Education and Social Development
The aim of this course is to demonstrate the close inter-relationship between input materials, teaching &
learning. This course covers the preparation and evaluation of EFL / ESL instructional materials. The class
will develop critical skills for analyzing materials in accordance with theories of how second languages are
learned, while also considering practical classroom issues and differences in the EFL / ESL environment.
The course will utilize a practical hands-on approach to adapting current materials and developing new
materials, including those which target linguistic features in the context of meaningful learner interaction.
The class will focus on materials for the different skills in current use in communicative models including
(but not limited to) task- based approaches to teaching, issues in computer-assisted language learning,
and content-based instruction. The current trend towards authentic materials will also be explored.

This course is intended to give participants an overview of some of the ways of looking at syntax and
provide a working understanding of English sentence structure at an introductory level. A large part
of the course introduces a simple version of the most popular and best known approach to syntactic
analysis, transformational syntax. Participants will look at word categories, phrase structure and the rules
that govern sentence composition before looking at complement options, co-ordination, modifiers and
transformations. These topics will be made clear by the use of tree diagrams. The course then leads briefly
into functional grammar, a look at how language achieves different functional and communicational
purposes according to the object and context of communication. Many of the same areas are revisited
and contrasted between functional and formal grammar. A brief look is then taken into syntax from
the semantic viewpoint, to prepare students for an approach to grammar that may become popular in
the future. Finally, participants are invited to look at their own understanding of English grammatical
structures, and some suggestions for treating grammar in the ESL classroom are proposed.

TE30103 THE SOCIAL CONTEXT OF LANGUAGE LEARNING
This course is intended to provide knowledge of language variation in society resulting from social
variation, regional and ethnic differences at an introductory level, as well as the methods used for
studying language variation. It ties this knowledge to language acquisition knowledge by describing
the development of pidgins and creoles and also intends to create awareness of language bias and the
appropriate ways of mitigating associated social bias. Basic analysis of speech situations and discourse
structures is also included to assist in providing an undestanding of classroom culture and interaction.
From this it is then intended to help students form appropriate approaches to TESL teaching suitable for
the social-linguistic environment of the classroom and the methodology requirement of the Malaysian
schools English Language curriculum. It is intended that knowledge of the above might help prepare
students initiate their own role within the school community at the beginning of their school careers.

The objective of this course is to provide a detailed school based teaching practice program for
professional development designed to promote “student teacher growth” and such growth is viewed
as student teacher professional growth through a learning process. It is designed to prepare student
teachers for actual teaching practice. The course is designed as a stimulus to student teacher growth,
where professional growth is seen as a form of learning. New perspectives on teacher change and
teacher professional development have learning as their core with views of “teachers as learners” and
“schools as learning communities”. Each team (3 - 5 student teachers) was required to establish a
Professional Learning Team for ELT. Teams were made up of all Final year student teachers and the
lecturers. This course allows students to study the different approaches, methods and techniques and
formulate interesting and effective language lessons. Students are encouraged to integrate the four
language skills for effective communicative language teaching activities in the classroom. Studentcentred approaches encompassing the self-paced, self-access and self-directed elements as emphasised
under Smart school is promoted. Topics such as English Language curriculum / syllabus analysis, lesson

TE40003 COMPARATIVE LITERATURE
This course examines the state of comparative literature world-wide in the 1990s. In the past twenty
years a range of new developments in critical theory have changed patterns of reading and approaches
to literature: gender based criticism, deconstruction and orientalism have all had a profound impact on
work in comparative literature. This course introduces some of those approaches through a series of case
studies, and asks questions not only about the current state of comparative literature as a discipline,
but also about its future. Since its beginnings in the nineteenth century, comparative literature has been
closely associated with the emergence of national cultures, and its present expansion in many parts of
the world indicate that this process is again underway, after a period of narrowly Eurocentric research
in the field.

TE40203 LANGUAGE AWARENESS
This course has two main aims: to raise awareness of language use in a multi-lingual, multicultural
context, and to improve students’ own proficiency in written and spoken English. Modes and forms of
language use will be studied by looking at different contexts of language use in education, and different
historical and social contexts. However, the overall aim of this course is to let you experience an approach
to grammar that is different from the one you know from your own school days. It is not so much rule
based and prescriptive, but exploring and probing.

Physiology introduces students to the major topics and concepts of plant physiology. It encompasses
examination of plant functions ranging from the basic unit- that is cell, down to its complexities of
the systems of plant as a whole. It is the study of how plants acquire and utilize essential minerals
from their environment. Plants have had to develop mechanisms to concentrate elements from dilute
solutions without accumulating toxic amounts of other fixed in photosynthesis for nutrients they need.
Plant physiology likewise includes the study of nutrient transformations at the root surface. The course is
divided into three sections: (1) Plant Biochemistry and Metabolism, (ii) Water and Solute Transport, and
(iii) Plant Growth and Development.

According to the quantum mechanics, state of motion and dynamics of electron are represented by the
wave function that is determined by Schrodinger equation and stationary state can be treated by solving
time-independent Schrodinger equation (eigenvalue problem of Hamiltonian operator). Introduction
of the origins of quantum mechanics, quantum mechanical principles, translational motion, vibrational
motion, rotational motion, atomic structure and atomic spectra, molecular structure and magnetic
resonance, are described. Meaning of the first law of thermodynamics will be understood by learning the
relation between thermal energy coming in and out of a system and its mechanical energy, and study its
mathematical treatment. Second and third laws of thermodynamics will be understood through the study
of entropy, which represents the sense of spontaneous change in equilibrium reaction, the techniques to
apply the concept of entropy and calculate them.

TF20003 OPTIC AND MODERN PHYSICS
UNDERGRADUATE PROSPECTUS 2013/2014
The course studies the establishment of the ideas and institutions of modern physics, covering the evolution
of the discipline over roughly the last century and a half. This period has witnessed some of the field’s most
dramatic developments, both intellectual and structural. The courses begin with the nineteenth-century
organization of the discipline and the debates over the classical world picture (mechanics, electromagnetism
and optics, thermodynamics and statistical mechanics). Then follow the dramatic changes that undid the
classical picture, from the discovery of radioactivity and x-rays, through Einstein’s theories of relativity, on
to the the creation of quantum mechanics and accompanying philosophical disputes. We consider the
elucidation of atomic structure, the exploration of the nucleus, and the establishment of the field-theoretic
description of natural phenomena. Alongside these conceptual upheavals in addition, applications including
nuclear, particle physics and condensed matter will be covered.
