授業実施形態

All classes are to be conducted face to face; however, in the case of an emergency, the instructor may elect to provide online (live-streamed) classes. Please note that the maximum number of online classes must be less than 1/2 of the total number of classes for the specified course. If an instructor does conduct a live-streamed class, then the link will be posted on Manaba+R.

授業外学習の指示

Students will be expected to read the newspaper (print or online) and academic articles or other materials, keep a journal of news events, and make a brief news report in every class. Students are also advised to keep a record of useful vocabulary learned in and outside of the class (this can be done in the back of the journal). Listening to English news broadcasts, and watching English TV programs, documentaries or movies to supplement the listening practice done in class would also be very helpful. Preparation for discussion, presentation and writing assignments will be done at home and research will be required.
