Dear BD (it wouldn't hurt to learn your name - or am I supposed to know =
it?
:-) ) -=20
I teach Advanced 1 in a college and can say that the majority of =
students
lack the skills required for successfully processing academic English. =
In
addition to English proper (the usual prefixes/suffixes/connectors =
soup), we
have to teach them paraphrasing and summarizing skills, critical =
thinking,
etc.
Using this festive opportunity, I would like to ask you and others =
involved
in higher ed to present a definition/description of what you call =
college
standards. Oh, I do have my own views - but I want to hear how *you* lay =
it.
Just to make sure we mean the same when we say "academic standards," ok?
Best -
Lev

For those involved in Higher Education, I humbly pose this question. Do
students, that have gone through the required English curriculum of
secondary schooling, meet the college or university standards for
English entrance examinations.
