授業の概要と目的（何を学ぶか）Outline and objectives
This course is a general introduction for students who wish to expand their comprehension of global issues with reference to Africa as informed participants. It is also for students who are interested in studying Africa's society, culture, and politics. Students will learn to identify, analyze, interpret, and evaluate African issues and relate them to global issues.
到達目標Goal
This course aims to expose students to how Africa has been subjected to profound stereotypes and misconceptions that have largely informed the continent's global perspectives. The course will seek to humanise our understanding of Africa by emphasising forms and means of daily life experiences and understandings such as family life, love and joy, the life cycle, faith and belief, livelihoods, aspirations, hopes for the future, development aims and achievements, and a sense of global belonging. The overall goal is that students will gain experience researching, discussing, and presenting Africa in the discussion of global issues using a good command of the English language with both clarity and confidence.
