About the course

The course focuses on modern literature in English, particularly texts concerned with the development of the individual in relation to society. The course also introduces some analytical tools and terminology.

Teaching is normally scheduled for late afternoon, 16:00-18:00. The courses in Practical English do not qualify for English B1.

Outline for distance course: The distance course is based on self-study and teaching in a web-based learning environment. This contains all information regarding the course and is used for the compulsory course activities. Teaching takes the form of study instructions, exercises and discussions. Access to a computer with an internet connection is a requirement. All teaching and examinations are done online. There may be scheduled obligatory online meetings. Please note that a distance course requires as much effort as an ordinary campus course and that it is equally important to meet set deadlines.
