Students learn how to express their opinions creatively in English through responding to music & lyricism. They select music from artists they admire and learn to analyse the lyrics, techniques and patterns in order to establish understanding. Song writing patterns and structures are compared and contrasted and students identify styles and genres. Students identify topics they feel strongly about and explain why these issues are important. They select songs that somehow relate to their chosen topics and deconstruct the lyrics in order to express relevance. Students develop the following English language skills: Listening, Reading, Creative Writing and Interpretation. The core subject is used as a vehicle to examine contemporary issues including: philosophy, psychology, politics, history, theology and globalization and there is a special emphasis on Artists Tackling Global Issues. This course is suitable for students who are comfortable participating in class in English and have an interest in modern music

In this class, you will read some famous Japanese poets from the Meiji through roughly the early Shōwa era. Most of the reading will be in Japanese. You will improve your English writing and translation skills by translating poems into English. You will also write your own original English poems! We will look at haiku, tanka, and more modern styles of poetry. Every week we will have discussion activities. You will work with classmates to translate and write poems. There will also be some "Poetry Projects" where you will read your translated and original poems to your classmates and give each other feedback. As part of these projects, you will submit your poems in English and receive feedback from the teacher.

Tabletop! Advanced Discussion using Tabletop Games
This class uses board gaming as a way to learn about and experience different kinds of advanced interactions in English. This class is designed to create a rich, task-based approach to language learning where students must use their reading, speaking, and listening skills to (a) learn, understand, and conform to the rule systems of the games, (b) negotiate and cooperate with their fellow players to complete the specific tasks of the games, and (c) critically evaluate strategies necessary for the completion of those tasks.
Because this class requires a strong foundation of English reading, listening, and speaking with a specific focus on oral fluency, it is designed for C-level students. However, B-level students who wish to challenge themselves are welcome to join. Likewise, as fluency is the goal, this course is NOT recommended for GIGA students seeking to improve academic English abilities.

“A book must be the axe for the frozen sea within us.” –Franz Kafka
Though Kafka was referring to the act of reading with this comment, I believe that this idea can be extended to the process of writing. I would like to help each student to use his/her own “axe” to strike against the “frozen sea” of his/her inner self. I am especially interested in guiding students to create works of experimental literature (writing that uses innovative techniques to produce highly unique and expressive material). The course will be conducted as a workshop, with students generating new artistic output in each class. Students will receive extensive feedback on their work, which they will incorporate into the practice of rewriting the piece for homework. We will read poetry and short stories, watch short videos, and view images that induce a literary response. Students will submit an anthology of the best writing they’ve done throughout the course as a final project.
How to Successfully Bring a Product or Service to Market Using Online Marketing

You will learn and apply the following: market research, YouTube analytics, salesmanship and copywriting, Internet ad creation, Internet ad placement, etc.
The course will use active learning in every class (discussion and group work).
There will be a short lecture each week followed by a hands-on activity to put the information learned into action. Some activities will be done individually, but several activities will be group-based. Homework will be given every week, including several discussions and presentations.
By the end of the class, you will have done a YouTube consulting project, a Facebook consulting project, and have improved your presentation skills.
The course is firmly based on the idea that language is a powerful reflection of cultural values, and therefore uses translation as a means to explore the workings and characteristics of our own language as well as those of English. Making use of subtitled/dubbed movies and TV shows as material, we will mainly work on Japanese to English translations. In every class, we will challenge ourselves with the task of creating our own "sub-channel" scripts or subtitles. It is an activity-based course in which students are expected to learn from practical experience and experimentation. Creativity, imagination, and humor will be highly appreciated. We will also be working towards a common goal- producing a dubbed ("fukikae") English version of a segment from a Japanese video of your choice in groups. In the beginning of the course we will work on English-language videos translating the subtitles or dubbed versions and "re-creating" the English scripts. After writing Japanese dub scripts for English videos for a few weeks, we finally move on to using Japanese materials to create the English versions.
In class, we will use short video segments and work on the translation in pairs or small groups. Class activities will basically follow the same procedure every week:
1. Watching the video segment
2. Translating and discussing in pairs or groups
3. Presenting the script and sharing each other's work
4. Comparing our versions with the original version
5. Discussing the work and material
Students on this course study a range of public policy issues, develop the ability to analyze these issues, provide solutions, hold extended discussions with classmates, and make academic presentations. We will widen students’ content knowledge in English on these issues while also working on the skill of openly exchanging ideas and opinions.
Subcultures: The Basics is an engaging introduction to youth cultures in a global context. Blending theory and practice, this text examines a range of subcultures such as hip hop, graffiti writing, heavy metal, punk, burlesque, parkour, riot grrrl, straight edge, body modification, and skateboarding.
[From the back cover of the book]
This class will use Ross Haenfler’s Subcultures: The Basics (2014) as a springboard to discuss various subcultures (both worldwide and within Japan). Students will be given weekly reading assignments from the text, as well as corresponding homework that deals with the vocabulary, cultural aspects, and themes of the book. Class discussions will be based on the readings and a viewing of SoulPancake's "Subcultures" video series. Students should be the driving force of these discussions. Enthusiastic class participation is expected. There will be a midterm essay test and a final presentation.
Students must buy the book (available at Keio Co-op Fujisawa store) for this course.

Deutsche Literatur und Bibel
Kennen Sie deutsche Literatur? Haben Sie deutsche Bibel gelesen? Haben Sie Ihre Lieblingsliteratur?
In diesem Contentskurs lesen wir biblischen Text und Literatur gemeinsam und diskutieren wir auch dabei über Symbole, Metapher oder auch Allegorien, die im Text auftauchen. Das Ziel von diesem Kurs ist es, literarische Formulierungen sowie Wortschätze zu verstehen und literarische Texte aus dem wissenschaftlichen Aspekt zu analysieren und interpretieren.

Qu’est-ce que signifie être « étranger » ? Est-ce vivre dans un pays différent de celui d’où nous sommes originaires ? Si oui, comment avons-nous intégré cette « origine » pour définir notre identité culturelle ?
Être « étranger », est-ce vivre dans un milieu social qui n’est pas le nôtre ? C’est-à-dire, est-ce se sentir différent et mal à l’aise dans les rencontres que nous faisons (dans les transports en commun, au travail, lors des loisirs, etc.) ? Si oui, comment ces interactions fragilisent-elles notre identité sociale ?
En résumé, être « étranger » serait l’incorporation de notre culture et notre milieu social dans une situation où les personnes que nous rencontrons nous renverraient, tel un miroir déformé et déformant, le reflet de notre altérité, voire pire, de notre exotisme. En d’autres mots, être « étranger » est à la fois une étiquette que les autres nous apposent et l’expression de notre identité dans une situation dont nous ne maîtrisons pas tous les codes.
Pour répondre à ces questions, nous appuierons notre réflexion sur des travaux d’historiens, d’anthropologues et de sociologues.
