In this course, you will learn about "pattern language," which captures the essence of good practices and articulates them in words. You will also engage in crafting works that express and share these patterns as stories (manga, picture books, or songs).
The course begins with an overview of pattern language and examples from fields such as education, work, welfare, daily life, and personal growth. In the second half of the semester, you will individually choose to express these patterns through either manga, picture books, or songs.
While we highly welcome those skilled in drawing or composing music, it is not necessary to have these skills. With the aid of generative AI, you can still craft fascinating works on your own. This course will involve the use of generative AI as needed, focusing on crafting Practice-Inspiring Stories that support the practices of others.
