●授業内容
The primary aim of this class is to provide students with opportunities to develop confidence in their English abilities, particularly presentation, through exercises based upon several model presentations.
We are going to use a textbook, Dynamic Presentations: Skills and Strategies for Public Speaking. As this long title implies, students will work on understanding presentation skills through using English. Each unit provides students with real-life contexts for various authentic purposes. Students are required to use knowledge and skills learned in their prior Academic English classes when they prepare and perform their own presentations throughout this course. All the members in the class should try to express themselves in English, although they are not expected to use completely flawless, standardized English.
In the classroom, students work in pairs or in groups to acquire presentation skills, and they also review and criticize each other's work as they actively engage in exercises assigned in the textbook. The students are asked to prepare both for all the exercises in each unit in the textbook and for review quizzes for each unit, together with one in the e-learning materials, at the beginning of each lesson. So they are expected to come to class well-prepared to be an active, contributing member of the class. They will only receive participation points if the instructor is regularly aware of their presence and active participation. To prove your active participation, you are required to make a recitation presentation based upon some excerpts from the text at the end of the semester.

●担当者からの言葉(Webページのみ表示)
目標達成には、(1)具体的な動機、(2)やる気の育み、(3)時間の投下が必要です。特に英語の目標達成のためには、(3)が重要です。したがって予習復習、それも自学による復習の反復は不可欠です。体だけ教室に運んでくればよいという安易な気持ちでの受講は厳禁です。
