One of the ways we assess students on this course is to give them a level related to the Common European Framework (CEFR). This framework is now being used in 16 universities in Vietnam. The goal of this course is for students to reach at least B1 or B2 if you want to progress to IELTS (see attachment below). This means you are an independent user of English. You are assessed throughout the course in every lesson and you will be required to produce an e-portfolio showing your best work (a website). I will explain how to do this later in the course. For now, you should start to keep a journal of your learning here. This should reflect what you have learned. Please write about your reflections on the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child: Feelings about what you have learned today The role of the CRC and Vietnam Something new and interesting that you learned today and that you didn't know before. Please write150-200 words and check your work BEFORE you turn it in.
