1.科目のねらい・目標

This is a language course which aims to build upon the skills and fluency acquired during the first three semesters. There will be emphasis on English for health and welfare studies and on presentation skills. Students will be encouraged to become independent learners, able to motivate and organise their own learning.

2.授業計画・内容

The course will be taught entirely in English, and the use of Japanese in the classroom will be strongly discouraged.

Students will spend most of their time communicating in spoken English, often in pairs or in small groups. Pronunciation, fluency and clarity will be monitored, and appropriate help will be given to individuals. The atmosphere will be relaxed, and games, role play and other activities will be used to encourage progress through enjoyment.

As well as speaking, there will be practice in listening, reading and writing.

Most lessons will take place in a classroom, but some time will be spent in the LT listening room and the LT computer room.

The main topics studied will be

• Health and Welfare
• Presentations
• Professional Practice
• Diet and Lifestyle

Vocabulary, structures and situations appropriate to the topics will be reviewed or introduced. The main emphasis will be on making active use of English as a means of communication. Opinions, discussion and debate will be included in the course.

Lessons 1-28: Each of the course topics will be introduced, reviewed and practised regularly throughout the course, according to the needs of individual students and classes. Records of course content covered by each class will be updated and checked weekly, to ensure that all required topics and skills are thoroughly practised throughout the semester.

3.教科書

No set textbook will be used, but students will be issued with a course outline. Course content will be similar for all groups, with subject-specific vocabulary for students from each department.

4.参考書


5.成績評価方法

Speaking (60%), writing (20%) and reading and listening (20%) will be assessed during the course.

6.授業の工夫している点(授業改善アンケート結果やピアレビュー結果から検討した内容等)

Feedback from students has generally been positive, and this has encouraged us to continue emphasizing oral communication skills.
