In this interesting course, students will be asked to design the script for a full-fledged movie documentary about a recently developed technology in the market. Students during the quarter will have to use different semantic models for linguistic application, including developing the ontology of different variants of information and linkages which could be used to develop a proper thoughtful storyline and an informative script. Different semantic models including text-mining, concept mapping and infographics software will be used for information management purposes. A lot of time during this course will be spent on understanding the basics of ontology development, and information scripting for documentary movies.

Course Description
This course is designed for advanced students at University of Aizu who expect to write in their future employment. Moreover, the purpose is to increase awareness of students at UoA about the start-up business culture in Silicon Valley, California. This corporate knowledge about the inner functioning of some of the Silicon Valley companies are important as students get ready to start working after their graduation. Such knowledge would also help them prepare for job interviews. Successful employees know how to communicate clearly and effectively, changing writing style and content for varying audiences and purposes. This class will focus on the difficult task of meeting readers' needs while simultaneously representing your best interests and those of your employer. To meet that end, the assignments will cover a variety of tasks produced under different circumstances, some done quickly during class and some polished and perfected over time. Students completing the semester's work should see a visible improvement in their writing, especially in terms of clarity and precision.
授業の目的と到達目標
/Objectives and attainment
goals
Course Plan
This course is designed to help you write more effectively in work situations and understand the Silicon Valley business issues in more details. Much of workplace writing is done quickly and without time for revision. As such we will take a participatory approach and most of the assignments would leave room for multiple iterations (revisions). Even when you turn in a final document and you have an idea for further improvement of the existing document, I will give you an opportunity to improve on it. But it would be based on a case by case basis. Most of our assignments would be scenario based, working with actual corporate situations. So our class lectures and discussions would center on issues in corporate culture, resource availability etc. I will expect you to have a reasonably good understanding of the context and audience with a plan outline for execution before starting with any writing process. This is because you write in an organization for possible further action and not for grades.


Course Policies
Business Writing is a workshop class that includes in-class writing, peer group work, and case study based projects. In-class work missed as a result of attitude or unexcused absence related problems may not be made up. If you must miss class, use the professional work model: e-mail your instructor with the date and reason for your absence before the class you miss and be sure that any homework is handed in electronically and on time. You can at most miss 5 class periods during the semester without failing the class. Be in class full time. Late entry would be counted as absence. Individual or small group conferences with the teacher will be scheduled each semester as regular class events; a missed conference counts as an absence.

Course Objectives
1 The student should be able to write in any corporate context.
2 Develop and understand various strategies for planning, researching, drafting, revising, and editing documents that respond effectively and ethically to professional situations.
3 Learn and apply strategies for effective group collaboration.
4 Understand and use various research methods to produce professional documents.
5 Develop strategies for using and adapting various communication technologies for projects.
6 Learn to argue with visual data, understanding and implementing principles of document design.


Student Learning Objectives
Documentation Outcomes:
1. The ability to prepare short business documents in English.
2. Being able to write and design in any instructional context.
3. Specifically, learning to design brochures, manuals, business reports, and proposals.
3. Developing and understanding various strategies for planning, researching, drafting, revising, and editing documents that respond effectively and ethically to instructional situations.

Communication Outcomes:

This course is about IT Business and International Collaboration.

IT Business in the modern era is as much about IT, as it is about international collaboration. As part of this course, we will learn about technology and also take part in international project management.

3D printing is the new wave in the industrial revolution.

As part of this course, students will learn about the 3D printing technology and its associated processes. They will complete a short project related to 3D printing every week. The course will have a very strong focus on designing technical videos and making in-class technical presentations.

As they complete the weekly projects, they will share their own project outcomes with students from Karlsruhe University of Applied Sciences, Germany.

These students from HSKA, Germany will consult with you about your weekly projects; take the information and learn how to make a content management and delivery system as part of their own course.

This collaboration with HSKA, Germany will then result in an ACM seminar presentation from January 28 - February 1, 2020 (final dates yet to be decided).

WE WILL HAVE LOTS OF FUN WORKING ON THIS COURSE.

Course Introduction
In this course, learners' awareness of cultural differences and the ways in which these differences are realized in communication will be raised. Learners will practice and develop all four language skills (reading, writing, listening & speaking), and will build their vocabulary.

Course components
a) In-class activities/participation
You should attend all classes and participate in in-class listening and speaking activities. Attendance will be taken at the beginning of every lesson, and your participation will be carefully checked during the class. If you have to miss a class for a legitimate reason (e.g., illness or family emergency), you must contact your professor in advance to get credits for attendance.
b) Assignments:
The professor will regularly give graded tasks and quizzes. Some of these will be done in class, and some at home. It is important to complete them on time, and bring them to class. Late homework will not be accepted.
c) Mid-term and final exams:
Exams will be administered twice this term. Make-up exams will be provided only if you miss an exam for a legitimate reason (e.g., illness or family emergency).

授業の概要
/Course outline
大学卒業後、どのような仕事に就こうとも(民間企業、政府、学校、研究所等)、コミュニケーションスキルが高い方が成功しやすい。本コースでは、担当教員が主にカナダや中国で学んできたコミュニケーションスキルを扱う。各授業で、学生達は与えられたトピックに関して、インストラクションに従って、意見を述べてもらう。クラスの人数が多い場合は、スピーチの動画をYouTubeにアップする課題を出すこともある。意見をレポートにして出す課題も数回出す。このコースには、他人の意見を批判しないというルールがあるので、人前で意見を言うのが苦手な学生歓迎。
