The course goals for this communications class are designed to improve learners' ability to communicate in oral English. The approach is multifaceted and focused on enhancing students' communication skills in a variety of contexts. First, the course aims to improve students' ability to speak confidently and effectively in English. Students will be exposed to authentic language input in the form of audio and video materials that will help them to develop their listening comprehension skills and expand their vocabulary. Second, the course aims to develop students' understanding of functional language, such as language for expressing opinions, making suggestions, agreeing and disagreeing, and negotiating. Students will learn how to use functional language in different communication contexts, such as in debates, presentations, and discussions. Third, the course aims to equip students with communication strategies that they can use to improve their communication skills. These strategies will include non-verbal cues, body language, and tone of voice, which can be used to convey meaning more effectively and to engage in successful communication. Finally, the course aims to prepare students to discuss real-world issues with confidence. This includes developing students' ability to analyze and evaluate different viewpoints, express opinions, and engage in respectful debate. By the end of the course, students will be able to communicate effectively in English, using functional language and communication strategies, and will be equipped to participate confidently in discussions of real-world issues. |

| 事前学修・事後学修 ／Preparation and review class |
Students should prepare for lessons by reading the textbook unit that will be studied in each class. Students will be required to review the language structures, vocabulary, and strategies in order to pass the speaking tests. There will be weekly quizzes and bi-weekly written forums that students will be expected to complete outside of class hours. The textbook contains an online course component that we will use extensively. Completing the online course material will be done as homework assignments and students will be expected to do this in their own time. Students should expect to spend an hour each week outside of class completing the quizzes, forums, and other online course materials. There will be 2 speaking tests.

As the world continues to become more interconnected, the ability to speak English is increasingly important for students in Japan. There are several reasons why Japanese university students should develop their English language skills, including future academic and career success and becoming responsible global citizens. First, many academic programs at universities around the world are conducted in English. Therefore, students who can speak English have a greater opportunity to access these programs and gain a more diverse academic experience. Furthermore, English language skills are essential for students who wish to pursue graduate studies or research opportunities overseas. Proficiency in English is highly valued by many employers, both in Japan and abroad. Many companies require employees to communicate in English, and those who can do so effectively are often seen as valuable assets to the company.

Finally, learning English can also help students become responsible global citizens who can contribute to a better world. Being able to communicate with people from different cultures and backgrounds fosters understanding and cooperation, which can lead to positive change.
