Key Concepts 1: Listening, Note Taking and Speaking Across the Disciplines

Key Concepts 1 & 2 expose students to the material they will encounter in college-including discipline-based lectures, academic vocabulary from the Academic Word List, and structured speaking activities. Students gain valuable academic knowledge and essential note-taking skills necessary for success in college. The format for listening activities supports the listening section of the TOEFL and prepares students for further assessment and proficiency testing.
