Because I was in B class so I will tell from B class student point of view.

In the first week, the lecturer gave the overview about what we would do in the semester. He also gave explanation about the scoring system. Just prepare yourself that there will be a task almost in every meeting.

In week 3, we learned the difference between report and descriptive text; and explanation and procedure text. The task for next meeting: make an exposition text.

In week 4, He explained the difference between recount and narrative text. The tasks: making recount text (due date: a week) and narrative text (due date: 2 weeks).

Week 6: discussing mistakes in the recount text and giving task for first UK. The task was: conducting a small survey and making an abstract from its result.

Week 7: We had to choose a topic for our final project (for UK 3 and 4). Just choose (or find). Then class dismissed. Task for next meeting: Find a journal article.
