学修の目的と方法

授業の概要 Work and Global Understanding

In this course, we will examine the connections between work, culture, and personal values, and consider how they affect work experiences and work-life balance.

A unique point of the course is the use of simulations—role-plays in which you will learn by doing, not just sitting and listening. We will also use a combination of short lectures, discussions, interviews, and student-led research. No two lessons will be exactly alike.

Part 1: Our own interests
What are we good at? What can we offer an employer? What do we need from a job in order to be happy?

Part 2: Issues in the workplace
We will examine exploitation at so-called “black companies”. How do such work conditions develop? What influence does culture have? What have workers around the world done to obtain better conditions? What have governments done?

Part 3: Your topics
Working as part of a team, you will choose a specific topic connected with work and research it in detail. After becoming experts, you and your teammates will prepare and teach a 15-minute lesson on your topic. Some example topics include discrimination in the workplace, education and work, and the role of A.I. in the workplace.
学修の目的 The main goal of the course is to understand the connections between work, culture, and personal values. Grasping these connections will provide you with context for understanding issues concerning work in modern society. It will also help you as consider your own future career. In the process of investigating, you will make discoveries, such as different interpretations of what is ‘normal’. You will see how 'normal' is constantly changing in our society, and you will gain a greater understanding of change in work environments.
学修の到達目標 By the end of this course,
—you should have a deeper awareness of cultural influences on work and work values.
—you should have a better understanding of fair and unfair labor practices, and the roles of employers, employees, and the government in creating work environments.
—you should be particularly knowledgeable about a work-related topic which you have chosen to research.
—you should be more comfortable and competent at using English in group discussions of social issues.

We will create this all-English environment together by helping each other. You do not need to be a ‘master’ of perfect English. You do, however, need to make a commitment to using only English for the full 90 minutes every week.

(2) If you have specific needs which could affect your experience in the class, such as a physical disability or a sensitivity to certain sounds, please tell the instructor during the first class session. I will do my best to accommodate your needs.

(3) It will be helpful to have a dictionary available, either paper or electronic. Note that you may not use your phone during class except in special emergencies, so it may not be used as a dictionary.
