●本授業の目的およびねらい
本授業は、学術的な英文に関する基礎的なリーディング能力とライティング能力の養成を目的とする。そのねらいは、研究拠点大学である名古屋大学の学生にふさわしい学術英語を使いこなす能力を身につけるところにある。論理的な英文のカギとなるエッセイの構造に着目し、目的に応じて必要な情報をいかに読みとるか、また逆に、自分の考えをその根拠とともにいかに説得力ある論理的な英文に組み立てるかを学ぶ。将来、専門の論文を英語で読んだり書いたりする時に、指針となる英文構成法の基礎、および実際に役立つ英語表現を多く習得する。

●授業内容
The "Middle Level" (= Intermediate) courses are to emphasize reading and writing, so this course will provide opportunities to get practice in both of these skills by using a book and, possibly, other materials which address ethics. Reading assignments will be given as homework, and in class students will be required to write an essay about the assigned reading (books, mechanical devices, etc. will not be allowed when writing, and also memorized passages will not earn points) and then to answer questions and such like on worksheets (books etc. will be allowed for this).

●成績評価の方法
In regard to the part of the course that is under the teacher's jurisdiction, grading will be done based on the summation of weekly projects, each of which will be based on the essay (33%) and worksheets (67%) done in class.

The course book will be available from the teacher from the first class meeting, and it will cost one thousand yen.

●担当者からの言葉(Webページのみ表示)
Note: The part of the course for which the teacher is responsible is designed to encourage students to read, think, and write in the spirit of a liberal-arts education. Be prepared to devote an appropriate amount of time to the readings as homework; by persevering, important rewards will include a better intellectual appreciation of the subject of ethics. Also, please be on time so that the class meetings can be used effectively, and note that memorized assignments cannot be made up. (A paper copy of the syllabus, with or without any changes from this version, will be handed out in the first week of term.)
