本课程专为英语程度优秀的双语学生和英语为第二外国语的学生设计。协助他们在专业及学术科技的环境下，写出清楚、准确、简洁的文章。课堂上，我们把重点放在分析多元形式的科技文章范例。此外，纵使21F.225/6并不是堂文法课，我们仍会为撰写科技英语的优秀外籍学生，解答常见的文法错误。在未来，我们偶尔会在课堂中讨论学生的作品。我们的同学将成为我们讨论的作者。同学们偶而也会负责带领分组讨论以及简短的口头报告。

This workshop is designed to help advanced students of ESL and bilingual students to write clearly, accurately and effectively in a professional or academic technical environment. In class, we will focus on analyzing examples of various forms of technical writing. In addition, while 21F.225/6 is not a grammar review, we will address many of the common problems of advanced non-native writers of technical English. Class members will occasionally be the authors of the work under review. They will also occasionally be responsible for leading group discussions and for short oral presentations.

即使我们会花费相当的时间指导学生编辑上的技巧，但再次声明这不是文法课、也不是校定论点的课。积极参与课程中的小组分析讨论、口头报告练习，在学习的过程和期望在本课堂成功上乃是必要条件。因此，按时上课和准时完成作业是本门课的要求。由于普遍学生恶习、没办法按时完成作业或是无法配合课表上课的学生是不属于这门课的。这门课不接受旁听的学生。

The course, then, is not a grammar class nor a thesis editing service though we will spend considerable time developing student's editorial skills. Constructive participation in the group analyses, discussions and speaking exercises that take place in class is crucial to the learning process and to the success of the workshop. As a result, regular attendance and timely completion of assignments are requirements of 21F.225/6. Students who, due to general study habits or schedule conflicts, expect to have difficulty in arriving on time or in attending every class, and in completing assignments on time, do not belong in the class. No listeners are accepted in 21F.225/6.
