授業の概要と方法

【授業の概要】
This is a fukusenko B-gun course with 2 credits mainly for the third year students (up to 27 students per class). This course is designed to develop students’ English language and academic skills through the study of important social and global issues from the standpoint of monotheistic thoughts.

In order to be very active in our globalized society today, it is so vital that we understand the monotheistic thoughts which are dominant in the world such as the thoughts of:

Christianity, Islam and Judaism.

In short, this course aims to explore, *in English*, important social and global issues related to the monotheistic thoughts in modern society *by reading critically* and objectively relevant literature, and news form the media about them.

教科書(使用頻度、その他補足)

Please buy the textbook from your favorite bookstore or the Internet. You need to have the textbook in hand by the 2nd lesson.　 * Since most likely students are not familiar with the course topic “Monotheistic Thoughts and Modern Society”, more specifically the thoughts and cultures of Monotheism, they are expected to understand its contents and backgrounds by reading the textbook. Especially, in order to take quizzes successfully and to complete the given assignments, they are required to read the textbook very carefully. Once they appear to grasp its contents and backgrounds, the textbook will be less referred to in the class. However, depending on their comprehension levels, in other words, depending on their needs, students must use the textbook in their own self-studies until the final class test.
