| 事前学修・事後学修 ／Preparation and review class |
1. Preparation: • Read Assigned Texts: Mark unfamiliar vocabulary and key ideas. • Complete Textbook Questions (Reading Comprehension A & B): - For Reading Comprehension A, draft your reasoning notes so you can share in class. • Vocabulary Practice: Work on the vocabulary activities to strengthen your word bank. • Quiz Preparation: Study vocabulary for upcoming vocabulary quizzes, as announced. 2. Review After Class: • Reflect on the Discussion: Update or clarify your notes based on class insights. • Comprehension Quiz on manaba: The quiz usually covers the same topic/passage but may feature slightly different questions to check both reading comprehension and reading skills. • Short Pre-Quiz Reflection: Before each comprehension quiz, complete a brief reflection by checking a short checklist and writing 1–3 sentences in response to one of several prompts. This reflection encourages you to review the class material and is required to take the comprehension quiz. 3. Occasional Extra Homework • Additional tasks may be assigned—such as short writing exercises—so always check manaba for announcements and deadlines. |

| 履修上の注意事項 ／Remarks |
1. Language of Instruction • This course is conducted entirely in English; please use English for in-class communications. 2. Attendance and Participation: • We use the respon app to track attendance and collect answers. Bring a device that can access it. • If you must miss class for unavoidable reasons, let me know as soon as possible. Such absences won’t penalize your grade. 3. Classroom Conduct • Respect fellow students’ ideas and opinions during discussions. • Actively participate, ask questions, and express opinions in English. • Come prepared: read assigned texts, answer questions, and join all activities. • Submit assignments on time. 4. Translation Rules: • Pre-class & In-class: - Do not use translation tools (e.g., Google Translate, DeepL) or AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Google Gemini) for reading assigned texts or completing tasks before or during class. - You may use a standard dictionary for individual words/phrases. I strongly encourage you to rely on a reputable dictionary—not just Google—to find accurate definitions, • Review After Class: - You may use translation tools or AI only to deepen your understanding of the material after the lesson. - However, do not use these tools when taking Short Pre-Quiz Reflections, Comprehension Quizzes, or any graded assessments. 5. AI Tools (particularly for drafting your reasoning or writing reports): • You may use AI for minor language assistance (e.g., checking grammar, refining phrasing, or suggesting vocabulary) only after you have written your own draft. • AI must not be used to generate substantive content or to write entire reports/assignments; all ideas and analyses must be your own work. • Violations of this rule (for example, submitting AI-generated content as your own) risk a failing grade or further academic penalties. |
