This course is open to all students who would like to develop their public speaking and presentation skills in English. You will have the opportunity to learn from model speakers to understand the structure of presentations for academic purposes as well as work purposes. You will earn how to conduct and present your opinions as well as research. It is an interactive course where you put into practice what you have learned in from listening and noticing model speakers.
NOTE: This course is conducted in both English and Japanese.
It may be safe to say the importance of "story-telling" is yet to be fully recognized in Japanese society. Story-telling, which is the must-have element of presentation on the global stage, may as well be missing in your presentation.
This course is for students who want to brush up on their thinking, story-telling and presentation skills. Presentation is pretty much about thinking—thinking hard to form a good opinion, thinking hard to organize it, and thinking hard from audiences' point of view. Based on group work, the course provides students with opportunities to make presentations and see what stories can do, as well as doing some soul-searching.
この講座では、グラフィックデザインのコアスキル「印象操作(インプレッションマネージメント)」に取り組む。身体性・感覚を動員し、主に「文字」をモチーフとしながらコミュニケーションデザイニングに挑む。
授業形態は「ワークショップ+小講義」であり、「知識」でなく「知恵」の獲得を目指す。ワークショップでは制作・作品レビューを中心に行う。制作は授業外作業も多い。学生による作品相互レビューなども予定(COVID-19への対応は検討中)。そうして「かんがえる、つくる、みる、きづく」を繰り返し、情報伝達を客観的に捉え、伝達印象を操作していく力を養うことを目指す。
なお「アナログ的手法」を制作に挟み込んでいくことを歓迎する。(それは往々にして、力のある表現・発見・効果を生む)
この科目では、各人の市民社会でのあり方を、異文化間、とくにフランス語圏の言語文化を通した学びから深めるため、 いくつかのアクティビティをもとに考えていきます。
多文化社会化は世界的な流れであり、大都市やネット空間ばかりでなく、ローカルでも直接・間接的に波及しています。またこれまでの外交感覚の未熟と向き合い、個々の生活や欲求の充足はもとより、自ら思考し判断し自身や社会の夢や希望を実現してゆくためにも、このような市民社会の変容、またそこに表れる価値観の多様性に無頓着ではいられません。
それぞれの暮らしや社会問題、ことば、史実、思想について、フィールドワークや解釈学的アプローチによってその経緯の理解を深めていくことにこそ、大学での外国語の学びの大きな意味があります。また人文学のみならず、生命史研究や宇宙考古学など、自然科学や応用科学の成果は近年目覚ましく、意識やことば、またジェンダーや宗教の起源や経緯について、これまでにない角度から理解を深めることを可能にしています。地球環境に直結する問題(洋の東西、文明の光芒や対立、また近代の実態)には、キリスト教的非対称性思考(科学、資本主義、グローバリズム)がその核心にあります。フランス語圏での議論の文脈に触れたうえで、新たな知見を元に、これらの課題を位置づけていく営みは有効で、大きな知的冒険があります。この科目は冒険への橋渡しを目指します。
そもそも異文化間能力とは、言語文化学習のみならず、学び一般においても決して補完的な能力ではないのです。そこで、死生観や価値観のギャップや葛藤、対立などの対処について、一人ひとりのこれまでの言語学習やさまざまな他者性の経験をもとに、言語を手がかりに、本質探求的(クリティカル)思考を重ねていきます。こうして「市民性」への理解と「ソーシャル・マジョリティ」研究を深め、「当事者研究」の観点から、市民社会でのあり方および対話における言語使用に関しての自己信頼を高めていきます。
ゆっくりしたスピードで、余裕を持ってフランス語を学びたいと考えている学生向けに設定されています。週2回で2人の教師(フランス人ネイティブと日本人)で担当します。
フランス語全般にわたって自主的に運用することができる。複雑なテキストの理解をすると同時に、一般的あるいは専門的な内容の会話に加わり筋の通った意見を明確かつ詳細に述べることができる。

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.

There are many definitions of culture. Some would define it as the art, literature, and music of people, their architecture, history, religion, their traditions. Some others might focus more on the customs and specific behavior of the people. The course chooses a sociological definition of culture as the way of life of a group of people, developed over time and passed down from generation to generation. This broad definition includes every aspect of human life and interaction. The course is chosen to make a values approach focusing on the traditional mainstream values that have attracted people to the states. The course traces how values affect aspects of life.
Students are to read latest articles from weekly news magazine (mainly Time and occasionally Newsweek), Students will be given 2 (occasionally 3) articles every class (they are to choose one for classwork and one for homework or each student may choose any article from the provided news sites for homework). Each student will read, summarize, and analyze one article in class and one at home. Articles will vary from economics, politics to science and culture, but students will be given various types of articles every week. All summaries and analyses done at home must be handed in for the instructor to check the grammar and logic. Analyses will be presented (not by all students) orally in class. (The Instructor will mainly explain and analyze the articles in the first few lessons: students are expected to do the same in the remaining classes of the semester.) All summaries and analyses are to be handed one week after last day of class by email

初めて受講する学生もリピーターも大歓迎です。このコースでは、ランドが提供した過去のコースと同様のフレームワークを使用しますが、演じる作品も異なり、学習する資料が異なり、主要なトピックごとに新しいアプローチを紹介します。
I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical naked,
dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn looking for an angry fix,
angelheaded hipsters burning for the ancient heavenly connection to the starry dynamo in the machinery of night,
who poverty and tatters and hollow-eyed and high sat up smoking in the supernatural darkness of cold-water flats floating across the tops of cities contemplating jazz...
—from “Howl” by Beat poet Allen Ginsberg
アメリカが第二次世界大戦という世界的な悪夢から最後の一人として浮上した後、新しい社会秩序が生まれた。退役軍人、つまり禁酒法時代に生まれ、大恐慌の中で育ち、大人になる前に第二次世界大戦の恐怖に耐えた若者たちは、「普通」の理想化されたバージョンに「戻る」ことに必死だった。ソ連の台頭は共産主義者の魔女狩りをもたらし、アメリカ人にこの理想に合わせるように促した。このような背景の中で、ビート・ジェネレーションと呼ばれる詩人や小説家たちは、この窒息するような個人的・文化的抑圧に立ち向かい、自分たちのアイデンティティを主張していった。ビート・ジェネレーションの多くの作家や文章は、様々なスタイル、テーマ、視点を反映していますが、個人の自由と誤った社会規範の拒否という中心的な理想を共有しており、1900年代後半を定義するようになり、その影響力は今日でも強く感じられます。このコースでは、これらの影響力のある作家の作品を読み、議論するとともに、彼らがアメリカと国際的な心の風景に与えた深い影響についても考えていきます。彼らの作品の抜粋を読み、文学、音楽、宗教、セクシュアリティに与えた影響を調べます。
即興!
即興とは、準備せずに何かを話したり、演じたり、創造したりすることです。一体どうやってできますか?アイデアはどこから湧いてくるのですか?そして、あんなことをする自信だってどこから来るのですか?この授業で、即興のいろいろを探りましょう!一緒に即興ゲームをします。アイデアを生み出し、柔軟に考え、チームと協力し、また自信を持って一人で即興をするHOW TOを学びます。慣れていないことに挑戦するスリルを楽しみましょう。
期末プロジェクトはグループパフォーマンスになります。

This course is for those who want to think better and to be happier. Students will learn basic critical thinking skills: abilities to analyze and evaluate ideas and arguments skillfully as well as to present ideas and arguments logically and efficiently. Critical thinking is considered a skill to understand and analyze OTHER people's ideas and arguments, but it can also be used to understand YOUR own ideas and thought. Through critical thinking, students will be encouraged to think about themselves: what their values are, who they are, and what they can do to be happier.
Would you like to improve your listening? By listening to real people? In this course, we will interview our classmates and tell stories to each other. Then we will act those stories as short role plays. This technique, called "Playback Theater" means that you can practise living English in real time, and we can see the effect in real time. If you think "yes, they are acting exactly what I wanted to say!", then you have immediate feedback about your own communication. Much better than a test!
This course will help you improve your English listening skills, and how to explain yourself better. You will also learn basic interviewing skills.
