Regional Languages (English II): An Introduction to Anglo-American Literature and Culture 2017 I
 
授業の目標   
 
Goals of the course   
This course introduces students to the basics of Anglo-American literature and culture through the analysis of three representative 19th- and 20th-century literary texts. The focus is on providing students with higher levels of skills in reading and writing in English and getting them familiar with the basic reading and analytical skills that are required for academic study at the university level.
 
授業の概要   
 
Overview of the course   
We will read, analyze, and write on the well-known, exemplary stories written in English. Students are expected to prepare for each class carefully, reading the assigned texts with the help of good dictionaries and taking notes for analysis. Students are also expected to enhance their vocabulary levels by taking a short reading quiz every week. The two extra "active learning" sessions will be assigned for the mid-term and end-term examinations.

履修上の注意   
 
Notes   
1. Full attendance and active participation are the minimum requirements. Low attendance and/or lack of active participation and interest will lead to failures in taking credits. Students are required to notify the instructor beforehand and submit evidence for the reason of absence when they cannot attend classes.
2. Two "active learning" sessions will be assigned for the examinations.
3. Response papers are due in one week. The last response paper is due on the day of the end-term examination.
4. Students with poor attendance and performance, lack of interest, or extremely bad attitudes (showing off contempt for academic study and its formal procedures, for example) might be expelled from the classroom or might have to see and talk to the instructor.
5. Consult dictionaries as often as possible in and out of classes. Students should use good dictionaries such as Merriam-Webster Online, Oxford Concise Dictionary and Longman's Dictionary of Contemporary English. They are sometimes required to refer to the information on etymologies in dictionaries.
6. Students are strongly recommended to use PCs or electronic pads/tablets in their study for quick search. Texts might be assigned in Kindle editions or PDFs.
