授業の目的・方法 /Course Objectives and method |
Using established theoretical frameworks, this course investigates national cultural values and how those values manifest themselves in everyday interaction. The course has two aims: (i) To consider national identity and how it affects intercultural communication. (ii) To develop students' English fluency - especially presentation, discussion and writing skills. |

達成目標 /Course Goals |
By the end of the course students should be able to understand cultural theory and have developed their speaking and listening skills in English. This will be achieved through: - Weekly discussions on theoretical and practical aspects of comparative culture - Regular reading assignments to prepare for class. - Three writing assignments to examine theoretical and practical aspects of comparative culture to develop English academic writing skills. - Group research project into one cultural aspect of a country. Each group gives a class presentation on its research and writes a report to be handed in at the end of the course. |
