Outline (in English)

This class aims to deepen understanding of Japanese politics and economy. In the lessons, students will gradually learn the major themes of Japan's politics and economy, cutting them into small themes from various angles. The first half of the each lesson focuses on basic learning (to acquire basic knowledge of politics and economics; take a quiz to confirm). In the second half of the lesson, we will perform activities (pair talk, group discussion, oral presentation on contemporary topics and issues related to the theme).While the lessons will be conducted in an easy-to-understand Japanese language for International students, However, students are expected to be at the N1 level of the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT).
