授業の目的?内容 /Course Objectives |
This course sets out to help students further develop their communicative skills, and to help them develop a deeper understanding of current affairs. This semester we will take advantage of various online options for conducting our course. We will use Zoom as the main tool for our interactions. As such students are required to 'attend' class during the scheduled time. Additionally, we will maintain a mailing list for communicating and we will also use the convenience of Line for simple messaging. Dokkyo University's will also accommodate us. This course has a strict English only policy, and will maintain certain Zoom protocols. Students are asked to set person performance goals for this semester. |
