The Economist is not just one of UK’s, but also one of the world’s, top weekly current affairs magazines. It covers news and politics from all over the world, as well as features on science, technology and arts reviews.
This class is your opportunity to discuss either an article chosen for the class, or an article one you have read in that week’s Economist. Whether it’s to debate the issues in the article, to learn more about the background, or to critically examine the article in the light of The Economist’s editorial views, it is a chance to go beyond the article, as well as to practice English and make friends in the process!
What you'll learn
Why did I create this course?
I’ve taught politics at universities both in the UK and in Taiwan, and teaching is something I’ve always enjoyed. Besides politics and current affairs, I enjoy discussing views and opinions on various other subjects such as history, literature and more. With my classes, I try to create opportunities for people to discuss and critically analyse a variety of topics related to British history and culture, as well as current affairs.
Articles will be assigned for the first session. Students will pick articles for 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th sessions which they will summarize for the class.
