Outline (in English)

This class aims to provide students with further opportunities to improve their English proficiency acquired in English 1 and 2 classes. Students will read, write, hear and speak about various topics of Japan, especially Japanese culture in the world in English in order fully to have an academic skill. The spring semester focuses on understanding how Japan and Japanese culture are recognized, accepted, or sometimes criticized in the world. The various reading and listening materials can give students a lot of information, and based on these, they try to write a comment or speak his/her opinion in English. To see the acceptance of Japanese culture, students will look into an entry of Japanese words in Oxford English Dictionary. Analyzing the definition and quotations of these words contributes to students’ understanding Japanese culture. Concerning the class procedure, students take a listening test at the beginning, try to read a short English passage and write a comment after watching DVD. They also read an English essay on the background of Japanese culture and characteristics in class. It is essential for students to take three kinds of exams—writing, presentation, and final reading & listening.  The required study time is at least one hour for each class meeting. Before each class meeting, students will be expected to have read the relevant part from the text. However, they need not to prepare for the listening-mini test and all the writing tasks are performed only in class. Every student's overall grade in the class will be decided based on the following: Term-end examination 60%, mini-listening test average score 10%, writing & presentation score 10%, and in class contribution 20%.
