The lecturer in charge of this course is an editor and economic journalist who writes columns on economics and management in Nikkei Business and partly works for the policy think-tank, the Research Institute of Economy, Trade and Industry (RIETI). This course is a continuation of the previous semester's 'The Art of Knowledge Compilation - 1'. While the Spring semester focused on input, the Fall semester will include instruction in presentation and writing, so that students can master "the techniques of thinking critically about specialist knowledge and events in their own minds and compiling knowledge" as non-specialists. While the first semester focused on economics and the real world, the second semester will focus on a wider range of problem solving. There will be more group work and exercises than in the previous term. In the second semester, we will continue to invite guest speakers from home and abroad and aim to make the classes interactive. Assignments are given in almost every class.
