授業の概要 /Course outline |
[Content:* Language:*] This course is a contrastive analysis of the phonology and phonetics (the sound systems) of Japanese and English. Each language's inventory of sound segments will be compared systematically, as well as the syllable structure and some phonological rules. Students will be taught to produce (pronounce) and perceive the differences between sounds in these two languages. In order to assist students in differentiating between English and Japanese sounds, both ultrasound and acoustic analysis software will be used in the classroom. |
授業の目的と到達目標 /Objectives and attainment goals |
By the end of the course, students will: (a) have some knowledge of the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) (b) know the sound segment inventories of English and Japanese (c) know the syllable structure differences between English and Japanese (d) know some phonological rules of English (e) have basic knowledge of how to use Praat acoustic analysis software (f) have had much practice *perceiving* and *producing* differences between English phonemes |

授業の概要 /Course outline |
Engaging digital applications though the English language, this course draws students’ attention to the commonalities and rich variation that exists among the cultures of the world. Computers will facilitate the examination of world music from the point of view of ethnomusicology. Students will be encouraged to apply critical thinking to historical, linguistic, sociological, geographic and purely musical processes. In this way, they will also hone their spoken, written and receptive English ability. Beginning by examining the core concepts of this important musicological field, the course goes on to cover significant traditions within a broadly representative selection of locations throughout the world. The global focus is followed by a more local one with students turning their attention to the musical and cultural life in their own hometowns and current community. Students will engage in E-field work, an increasingly vital tool in research into the music of the world. |
授業の目的と到達目標 /Objectives and attainment goals |
(1) To broaden students’ cultural awareness with the help of computers. (2) To help students hone their spoken, written and receptive English ability through discussion, multimedia activities and by engaging with a breadth of relevant texts. (3) To help students develop critical thinking applying to historical, linguistic, sociological, geographic and purely musical processes. (4) To help students understand and appreciate the cultural richness already present in their day to day domestic environment. |
