Assessment
and Goals:

Rationale for
Changes or
Exceptions:

CURRENTLY, ESL STUDENTS AT UMM HAVE JUST ONE ENGLISH LANGUAGE COURSE, EVEN THOUGH SOME OFTEN NEED MORE INSTRUCTION AND SUPPORT IN THAT AREA. A COURSE ON PRONUNCIATION IS KEY IN STRENGTHENING STUDENTS' ENGLISH LANGUAGE SKILLS AND IMPROVING THEIR OVERALL ACADEMIC EXPERIENCE AT UMM.
