| 授業概要 | An essential skill for Japanese students who wish, at some point, to travel, study or work abroad is to express their opinions on issues in a confident and coherent way. In Western countries like the U.S., the U.K. and Canada, individuals are often asked their opinions and they are often met with opposing views. In many cases, individuals are then judged by how well they can defend their views – in other words by how well they can debate. This is sometimes difficult to do for Japanese students because, as the result of cultural differences, they are not used to giving their point of view. This class will allow students to take sides on different issues, presented mainly in articles, and to debate these issues with their classmates. In this way, issues will be discussed and debating tactics will be examined. |
| 授業計画 | Debate and discussion/ critical thinking/ analysis of articles/ presentation skills/ formulating one’s own views and perspectives |
| 評価方法 | Final evaluations for this class will be based on total performance including attendance, class participation and attitude, homework, reports, end of term presentations and/or examination. All aspects of the class will be essential for a good grade. |

Some of the issues we look at will be funny and some will be more serious, but all will help you get to know the thoughts of yourself and others. Come on and join in the debate! |
