●授業内容

Each lesson of the course will be divided into a speech giving section and an
extensive reading section. In the speech giving half of the lesson, student
will take it in turns to give short (approximately 10 minute) oral
presentations in English on any academic topic they choose. The aim here is to
break away from dependence on textbooks or simulated communication and move
instead towards genuine communication organized by the students themselves.
Accordingly, students will not be obliged to talk about particular topics but
will be free to speak about anything that interests them and which they feel
will be of interest to their classmates. Students will be expected to prepare
and give up to three presentations, depending on the number of students who
take the course. After each presentation the teacher will provide the
presenter with a detailed feedback report on his or her overall performance.
Emphasis will be put on logical sentence organization and justifying opinions.

In the extensive reading half of the lesson, students will make use of a series
of short and interesting books known as Graded Readers. These are books with
different levels of difficulty written specifically for learners of English.
Students will be expected to progress through the series of graded readers,
reading at their own pace but aiming to gradually increase both their speed
and their level of reading comprehension. At this stage, after reading each
book, students will be required to write a brief report, giving their personal
reaction to the book and describing their experience of reading it. Finally,
students will be given the opportunity to discuss their reading with the
instructor who will review their written book reports and give them feedback
and advice on how to further improve their reading and writing ability.

●成績評価の方法

speeches. All the graded readers are available for borrowing in the Central
Library of the university.

such dictionaries currently available is the Longman Dictionary of
Contemporary English.
