| 授業の題目 | This course aims to help students develop the skills and linguistic resources necessary to discuss current events in English. There is a particular focus on world news seen from a global perspective. |
| 学修の概要 | There is no textbook for this course. Students will engage with news content on a wide variety of topics in English, through listening, watching videos, and reading. They will develop the necessary skills to understand this content and discuss it intelligently. They will also engage in active learning, investigating English news each week and reporting back to their group the following week. Finally, they will develop their presentation skills, delivering two presentations, one in the middle of the course and one at the end, in the style of a news report. |
| 学修の到達目標 | The course will develop the four English language skills (reading, writing, listening and speaking), as well as the critical thinking skills necessary to interpret news media and the pragmatic skills necessary to express opinions about it and discuss it meaningfully. |
