Teaching Method
Outline:
Cultivating multifaceted thinking skill and perspective to play an active role in the international community in the future, with acquiring correct knowledge about the nomads and thinking about various discussions about the nomadic empires.
Style:
Lectures are given based on the handouts and with discussions with the students. Students are charged a reaction paper for each lecture. Students have to research and give presentations on themes of historical interest. Achievement goal 1 to 3 will be achieved by scoring 60% or more (out of 100 points): 80 points for the exams points for the middle and the end of the term, 10 points for the reaction paper, and 10 points for the presentation.
Notice:
As for the nomads, a somewhat romantic or slightly biased image tend to be preceded. In this lecture, we will get rid of such an image and learn about the characteristics, history, and technology of the nomads and their empires while dealing with specific historical materials. The most important thing is to have fun and learn.
