Outline (in English)

　As a rule, this class is face-to-face.　

　What is required of an international person in the new era?　It is not only to know the language and culture of English-speaking countries, but also to have an objective understanding of the culture and institutions of one's own country (Japan) and the ability to explain them
(Japan) in English. If you cannot explain well about your country, Japan, you not only tend to be embarrassed, but also you can have a risk of losing necessary trust of the foreigners.
　"Exploring Japanese Culture through English" is a comprehensive textbook. Interesting themes of Japanese culture such as "tatami mats," "chopsticks," "yukata and kimono," "congratulatory gift bags," and "dog and cat affairs" will be explained in comparison with Anglo-American culture.
　The 300-word reading part of the text is followed by a variety of exercises in vocabulary, comprehension, writing, listening, and speaking. I am sure that you students can also review your knowledge of English grammar.

　This course deals with the A, B, C. It also enhances the development of students' skill in D.
The class format of face-to-face may be unavoidably changed due to the spread of corona infection, details of which will be posted on the learning support system.
Since this is an exercise-type class, I would like you to speak up at least once per class.　
　Ideally, we would like to complete this text, which is one theme per unit, in three lessons.　First we will listen to the CD video, paying attention to important words and phrases, then we will read and understand the Reading English text, and then we will do the exercises. At the end of the semester, we will choose an informative film to critique and exchange ideas.
　In-text audio will be available through Kaibunsha website access.
　The main method of feedback will be in-class critiques.

　Preparation for each class is necessary. You will need to look up the vocabulary carefully before coming to class. You may use any dictionary you like. Read the English sentences in the reading section. After the reading of each chapter, you are expected to do the homework: practice exercises in each unit. The standard preparation and review time for this class is one hour combined.

　Attendance of at least 2/3 of the class is required. Evaluation will be based on the contribution to the class (50%) and a written test (50%). 60 points or more is a passing grade.
In principle, students who are absent more than 4 times per semester will not be allowed to earn credits.
The above is the case for face-to-face classes, and appropriate changes will be made when face-to face classes are switched to online classes.
