授業の目的?内容 /Course Objectives |
This course will explore the idea that words are not simply independent units of language; they also combine closely or frequently with other words to form collocations (e.g., "make a suggestion," "circle of friends," "marked improvement"). We will look at collocations from both a theoretical and a practical perspective, discussing questions such as: Why does the use of collocations help us to communicate more naturally and efficiently? What do dictionaries and language corpora tell us about collocations? How can foreign-language learners learn to use collocations appropriately? The main aims of this course are for students to: 1) gain an understanding of key concepts and themes in collocation research; 2) improve their ability to recognize and use English collocations; 3) develop the practical skills necessary to follow lectures and participate in group discussions about specialized topics, using English. |

事前?事後学修の内容 /Before After Study |
1) Before class (2 hours): Students must read a passage from the textbook and prepare a written mini-report (summary/comment) or worksheet every week. This preparation will equip you to follow lectures and participate actively in group discussion. 2) After class (2 hours): Students must complete written exercises from the textbook (1 page a week) and review the slides and materials used in class. You will also need to take ample time to prepare oral presentations and write the Final Paper. |
