講座概要:
Among all the popular languages in the world, English is probably the most important communication tool in the field of natural and social sciences. The present presentation intends to describe the significances of English study for students, educators and researchers whose first language is not English. Emphasis will be given to the English study and application at a North American university as a foreign student and scholar. The experience of English/Chinese translation for technical papers, books and archived documents will be shared. Technical paper writing in English will also be discussed as it is a fundamental and critical skill required in the field of natural science, social science and technology. Good writing skill is not only important for describing ideas of the writer and providing necessary comprehension to the readers in the world, but also crucial to the success of a project or a proposal in many cases. The essential requirements and skills for technical paper writing will thus be presented, from a viewpoint of a researcher, reviewer and editor.
