学習・教育到達度目標 ① （豊かな人間性の涵養）

Teaching Method

Outline:

Acquiring correct geographical and historical knowledge, developing geographic and historical thinking skills, and training to understand society objectively and relatively.

Style:

Achievement goals 1 to 3 will be achieved by scoring 60% or more of the mid-term exams and regular exams conducted in each of the first and second semesters (4 times in total).

Notice:

Geography-history is not a memorization subject, but I would like you to acquire the necessary geographical-historical knowledge. However, it is important to think after acquiring knowledge. The exam asks basic geographical-historical knowledge, as well as questions about geographical-historical thinking. The most important thing is to enjoy learning about geography-history.
