Riverside Community College – Student Services Update

Starting this spring, all new students will be required to meet with an academic advisor before they can register for classes. In the past, students were allowed to choose their own courses online, but many ended up taking classes that did not count toward their degree or transfer plans. As a result, some students spent an extra semester, and hundreds of dollars, on credits they did not need.

Advising appointments last about thirty minutes and can be scheduled online, by phone, or in person at the Student Success Center in Building C. Evening and Saturday appointments are available for students who work during the day. Students should bring a copy of their placement results and, if they have attended another college, an unofficial transcript.

Returning students who have already completed at least 15 credits are not affected by the new rule, although advisors strongly encourage them to check in once a year. Students who miss their scheduled appointment will need to rebook, which may delay their registration by up to a week. Since popular classes fill up quickly, the college recommends booking an appointment as early as possible.

For questions, contact Student Services at (555) 014-2290 or visit the center Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.

Partie 1 : Compréhension écrite – Note de service

To: All Warehouse and Office Staff

From: Daniel Okafor, Operations Manager

Subject: New shift-swap policy

Over the past few months, several of you have told me that the current process for swapping shifts is confusing and slow. At the moment, you have to fill out a paper form, get a signature from your supervisor, and then wait for Human Resources to update the schedule. Sometimes this takes so long that the swap is approved only after the shift has already happened.

Beginning March 1, all shift swaps will be handled through the scheduling app that most of you already use to check your hours. Once you and a coworker agree to trade shifts, one of you submits the request in the app and the other confirms it. Your supervisor will then receive a notification and has 24 hours to approve or reject the swap. If the supervisor does not respond within that time, the request will be approved automatically.

Please keep in mind that swaps are allowed only between employees with the same job training. For example, a forklift operator cannot trade a shift with someone who has not completed forklift certification. Also, no employee may work more than six days in a row, so the app will block any swap that would break this rule.

I realize that not everyone is comfortable with the app yet. If you would like a quick training session, Priya in HR will be running fifteen-minute sessions in the break room next week. Paper forms will still be accepted until the end of February.

Thanks for your patience as we make this change.

Notes pour l’enseignant

Prévoyez environ 45 minutes et demandez aux élèves de travailler sans dictionnaire. À titre indicatif : 29 bonnes réponses ou plus (environ 80 %) indiquent un niveau B2 bien acquis, 22 à 28 un niveau B2 avec des lacunes, et moins de 22 suggèrent de placer l'apprenant au niveau B1. Le test cible des erreurs fréquentes au niveau B2, comme la confusion entre « be used to » et « used to », l'emploi de « suggest » avec un complément et un infinitif, le mélange entre conditionnel passé (third conditional) et conditionnel mixte (mixed conditional), ou encore la mauvaise interprétation de « unless » et « can't have ». En prolongement, demandez aux apprenants de reformuler avec leurs propres mots les phrases sur lesquelles ils se sont trompés, ou de résumer chaque texte de lecture en trois phrases.
