| 授業の方法 | ゼミ Overall, this seminar will build on the skills learned and practiced in Academic English – reading and writing. The spring semester will focus on reading strategies; in other words, how to read so that you can better understand, respond to, analyze, and interpret a fictional text. Using the textbook The International Story, the first section of the course will work through the many reading and analyzing activities pertaining to Kate Chopin’s short story “The Story of an Hour.” In the second section of the course we will apply those reading strategies to readings and discussions of other short stories in the textbook. Students will also write a Literary Journal, in which they will record their thoughts and impressions of what they read. In the third and final section of the course, students will prepare a short essay and presentation about one of the stories read during the semester. Special note for Spring semester: Due to the coronavirus restrictions, please note the following: • This class will be on-demand self-study with weekly discussions on Zoom. • All class assignments will be written on or uploaded to Blackboard. • Students are urged to spend about 3 hours a week doing the reading and writing assignments (3 hours x 15 weeks = 45 credit hours). • Follow the class schedule (on Blackboard, not the one below), and post all assignments to Blackboard every Monday by 24:00. |
