| 授業題目 | 言語文化研究Ⅱ (American Culture through Literature) |
| 授業の概要 | This class will be conducted entirely online, using Google Classroom on-demand. In this class, we will watch a movie called Freedom Writers, and read most of the screenplay while working our way through a textbook, in order to help students maintain and improve their current level of English. If possible, we will also watch movies related to the same theme as Freedom Writers (Disadvantaged Students and Inspirational Teachers/Coaches), which will help students better understand American culture. This course should be of special interest to students who hope to become teachers in the future. |
| 学習の到達目標 | At the end of this online course, students will be: (1) More confident in their English skills (all four skills: reading, writing, speaking, and listening) (2) More familiar with several films about American society and about the theme of education (3) More familiar with self-study techniques (to become independent learners) (4) Better prepared for their seminar (zemi) and thesis research. |
