授業の概要
/Course outline
When we learn a foreign language, we typically focus on grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation. These are important! However, we sometimes forget to think about pragmatics- the ways in which our language choices can change in different social situations. This short course introduces you to the pragmatics of the English language. You will learn about how conversation is constructed in real-life situations, and how our grammar patterns and vocabulary choices vary in different contexts.

The course introduces the concept of speech-as-action. We will use the tools of conversation analysis to describe authentic talk and gain an understanding of how it can vary according to context. You will have opportunities to analyse model talk and apply apply knowledge to your own spoken interactions.

Course components
1. In-class activities/active participation
You should attend all classes and participate in all activities. Attendance will be taken at the beginning of class. Failure to actively participate in class may lead to points being deducted from the “active participation” category. If you have to miss a class for a legitimate reason (e.g., illness or family emergency), you must contact Allan Nicholas in advance.

2. Assignments/homework
Sometimes your instructor will give you assignments to complete for homework. It is important to complete all assignments and hand them in on time.

3. End-term assessments
There is an end-term exam. Make-up exams will only be given if you miss a test for a legitimate reason (e.g. illness or family emergency).

4. End-term project
You will complete a project at the end of the term to demonstrate your ability to apply the things you have learnt throughout the course.

You will practice both "extensive" and "intensive" reading in this class. Extensive reading (ER), the activity that you had in the first year, is believed to improve overall language ability if enough number of words is read. In this course, students will read more than 40,000 words of graded readers, and write and present a book report at the end of the quarter.
Intensive reading is a way of reading difficult text by analyzing the structure and meaning, possible with a dictionary. This course will attempt to improve your overall reading fluency by reading English in these two ways.

 この授業では、多読と精読の両方に取り組みます。皆さんが1年生の時に行った多読(Exntensive Reading)は、充分な読書量があれば、全般的な英語能力を向上すると言われています。この科目では多読図書4万語を読破し、ブックレポートを作成し、学期の最後で口頭発表します。
 精読は難しい英文を文構造や意味を分析し、必要な時は辞書を使いながら読解する読み方を指します。このコースでは、この2つの読み方を通し、英文読解の流暢性を高めることを目指します。

This course focuses on notetaking in academic contexts when the notetaker is listening to a lecture that is given in their additional language (English). Notetaking during a lecture is not a single action, but a recursive process which consists of several steps. Students will practice these steps to develop their notetaking and listening skills when listening to lectures in English. A variety of notetaking methods will be practiced, allowing students to discover which approaches are most suitable for them. These skills are crucial when taking lectures in an additional language and also beneficial when attending conferences in your professional life. Please note, while this course practices and develops listening skills, its primary focus is developing notetaking skills.
