【授業の概要と目的（何を学ぶか） / Outline and objectives】
It has often been noted that animation is the dominant medium of the current era. For instance, Disney is the world’s largest media company, anime is a globally popular media, and we even use animated LINE stamps to communicate with each other. Considering how our lives are now so “animated” as the point of departure, this seminar will explore ways of thinking about media broadly, including anime and films, manga and music, games, lifestyle, fashion, and SNS. Learning various theoretical and methodological approaches, this seminar will explore how different media are both affected by and affect the global societies we live in.
【到達目標 / Goal】
Throughout the seminar, students will learn how to engage with various media by examining relevant theories and research, exploring them through group work and discussion. They will also learn how to apply and critique the approaches examined in class. To do so, there will be presentations as well as smaller projects that work with specific theories and methods that focus on certain media. The students will have the opportunity to examine first-hand what media theorists and researchers are discussing about contemporary (and past) media and how such media reflect and affect society. Across the semester, students will also develop their own research project on a specific media of their choosing, applying the theories and methods we explored in class.

As a seminar, these classes will primarily be discussion and presentation-based. Each week students will be provided with an academic reading relevant to the topic, engaging with methodological and theoretical concepts in ways that connect to their research interests. Students will have group and class discussions on certain themes and prepare group presentations and activities to better engage with that week’s reading. Classes will also feature visual material such as images and clips of films and animation to better address, apply, and critique the readings. Students will also receive individual feedback and consultation at different points in the semester. Assessments of their work will be based on their understanding and application of the readings through their presentations, participation in discussion, and final papers.
