授業方法/Method of instruction
|
Reading assignments will mostly be in English. Each week, students will participate in group discussions (in English or Japanese) based on the reading assignments and topics given in class. Students will be asked to share their responses to issues raised and respond to other opinions and insights during class. Homework may include other special reading assignments to be discussed in class. Students will be given weekly quizes at to test vocabulary and class preparation.

成績評価方法/Evaluation
|
| 1 |
|
100%
|
The final grade is based on an evaluation of student’s attitude, effort, and participation (50%), class work, homework, reports and exams (50%). Other things that will be taken into consideration include the student’s punctuality, preparedness, neatness, accuracy, time management and listening skills. Being absent for more than 1/3 of all classes for the year is automatic grounds for failing. Arriving late to class more than 60 minutes once, 30 minutes twice, or 15 minutes 3 times is counted as one absence. Students who do not attend the end of the semester final exam can not receive a final grade.
