Japanese Social Issues - How To Analyze Issues And Present Your Opinion
***Please note that eight classes will be held live on campus and six classes will be held live on Zoom. You must attend and be able to participate in real-time, not by a class recording or on-demand.***
Each week, we will cover one core Japanese social problem.
The course will use active learning in every class (presentations, discussions, and group work).
Some activities will be done individually, but several activities will be group-based. Homework will be given every week, including reading and watching videos.
We will actively apply what we learn to think of solutions to current real-world Japanese social problems.
After you complete the course, you will:
1. Be able to give better presentations.
2. Be able to take part in higher-level conversations and express your opinion more clearly.
3. Be able to research more quickly.
4. Be able to determine the quality of your research sources.
