Course Summary

Fieldwork is a way to learn about society and culture. Therefore, understanding its practical meaning as a technique is essential. Still, it is also closely related to how to look at things to define problems for oneself and communication to interpret and present the results of research and analysis. This course teaches students the basic methods and attitudes of "fieldwork" through lectures and practical assignments. Each student will set a theme and conduct fieldwork throughout the semester. Students are required to go outside the campus, walk around the neighborhood, take photos and videos, and above all, see things with their own eyes and feel with their bodies.
