授業の目的・方法 /Course Objectives and method |
The main goal of this course is to improve speaking skills. In past years students have finished the course with more confidence to hold a conversation in English--the type of conversation one might have overseas in any country. Students are noticeably able to speak more smoothly and think on their feet - in English. This course is a student-centered, and the teacher will use a so-called active learning set up; the focus is on debate and discussion. The teacher will make the content easy enough for any student to participate but challenging enough to make the course useful for improving thinking skills in English. The instructor will expect students to read articles in English, form their own opinions and write essays. This prepares students to communicate their own ideas in class where they will spend most of the time in lively group-work discussion with classmates. The ultimate goal is to improve English by actually using it. |

達成目標 /Course Goals |
There are two basic goals: 1. English language skills (speaking, hearing, reading and writing). 2. Critical thinking skills (evaluating new information and developing ones own ideas through discussion and logic). The goal is to improve confidence to participate in a discussion on difficult issues in the society and the world. *These are the skills necessary to participate in society, vote in elections, succeed in a career, and to be successful in life generally. |

事前学修・事後学修 /Preparation and review class |
*Each week, students will be given an authentic reading (an article or book excerpt) which focuses on the content of the next week's class. They will be expected to consider the article and write an original essay based on their own ideas or values. For example, preparation for Week Two will include: a.) Reading an article around the topic of the food which we grow on our farms and eat at the diner table or in a fast-food shop. b.) Thinking about this topic and gathering your own ideas from your experience, from the news, or from research about fast food, healthy food, meat or vegetarian, etc.. c.) Writing an original essay about what you want to communicate about this topic. Review: a.) Keep good class notes of ideas gleaned from your in-class discussions with other students. These will help with tests which will follow in the coming weeks. b.) Carefully re-read essays returned by the teacher; in order to improve writing or deepen your thinking about the topics. Please study the red-pen edits, corrections and suggestions. |

履修上の注意事項 /Remarks |
1. 出席: Most of the speaking practice is done in-class. There are no notes you can copy from classmates. Therefore, attendance is vital to improving English and doing well in the class. 2. AI: Regarding the use of AI tools in this class: You may use AI tools for learning, such as brainstorming, for comprehension, and finding new ways to say things. You may not use AI tools for the writing up of entire assignments, presentations, or research projects. Those should be written by you. Failure to do your own work may result in a lower grade or in failing the course. 3. In this class, you learn English by using it. Teacher feedback comes in the form of red-pen edits & suggestions in submitted essays and test papers. It is vital for learning that students check and understand their mistakes. Also, students can receive feedback on English fluency from classmates during in-class active learning exercises. |
