In relation to course designing, the use of competence-based approach has proved more effective than the other existing approaches in producing learning outcomes that can meet future staffing requirements of the institute. Based on the anslysis of VAEI contexts, the learners’needs and the employers’ requirements, the paper explores the target genres, determines the specificity of writing competences covered within the course, and then develops a competence-based course schedule. Since this is the first attempt of its kind, the paper is expected not only to present a needed course for the engineers at VAEI but also to provide suggestions for course design and its implementation in the light of Competence-based Approach. 2017-08-14T03:01:07Z 2017-08-14T03:01:07Z 2017 Article http://repository.vnu.edu.vn/handle/VNU_123/56695 other Vol. 33, No. 1; application/pdf H. : ĐHQGHN |
