Outline (in English)

The purpose of this course is to experience the high-level, almost graduate-level practice of academic, constructive discussion based on reading of as much quality English-language literature on journalism and mass media studies as possible.

All participants must conduct sufficient preparatory as well as follow-up study in order to successfully earn credits for this course. Roughly speaking, approximately two hours of study will be needed both before and after each session, but the amount may increase for some participants as this course requires a relatively high level of English skills.

The final grade will be determined by the following factors: class activities (90%) and others (10%).
Participants will be graded not by exams, but by class activities including discussion. Participants must understand that mere attendance is far from enough to earn credits. Highly motivated class participation is imperative.
