Modern Japan in Modern Japanese

上智大学公開学習センター

四谷キャンパス

【学習内容(Contents)】 This course is intended for intermediate learners who can discuss everyday topics and express their opinions in Japanese. Its goal is to increase students’ Japanese language capabilities through reading articles and watching videos about specific topics discussing Japanese culture and customs, and using what they have learned to discuss their countries’ culture and customs, expressing their opinions, and listening to the explanations and opinions of their classmates. Another target is acquiring vocabulary and expressions used to understand and talk about academic topics as well as everyday ones. Its goal is not to simply learn vocabulary and grammar, but to acquire intermediate-level Japanese capabilities through meaningful communication activities. Additionally, the Japanese language is not the sole focus of this course, and one of its main objectives is learning knowledge and strategies useful in understanding everyday Japanese life and Japanese ways of thinking.
【学習方法(Methods)】 Students in the course will be expected to actively participate in and contribute to classes. It is not about rote learning, but instead requires that students always take the initiative in discussing their countries’ unique points and their own personal experiences in actively exchanging opinions with the professor and other classmates. Important grammar structures and vocabulary will be explained in English, but students are expected to adopt an attitude of actively putting Japanese into practice. Classes will take advantage of a main textbook, but a wide variety of supplementary materials will be used to provide further detail on the topics discussed. The next week’s topic will be presented to students, who are then to prepare to discuss it from their individual experiences and against the cultural background of their countries in Japanese.
【受講者に期待する達成レベル(Goal)】 The main objective is for all those who have successfully completed the course to not just acquire vocabulary and expressions to discuss topics above and beyond everyday life in Japanese, but also to gain the confidence to speak in Japanese. Another objective is to gain knowledge needed to further understand Japanese traditions and Japanese ways of thinking.
