Teaching Method

Outline:

General or Specialized : Specialized

Required, Elective, etc. : Elective must complete subjects

Foundational academic disciplines: Mathematics, Natural Sciences, Sports Sciences, Humanities, Social Sciences

Relationship with subject learning goals: This subject is the learning goal of the Department of Comprehensive Science and Engineering to "(4) Develope multi-discpliuary ability"

Relationship with JABEE programs: The main goal of learning / education in this subject are "(A) , A-1 "

Course outline: From the standpoint of the specialized field of each faculty member in their advanced science fields, we will provide "fun topics that we want to convey to students," "tips for learning," and "tips for free research."

Style:

Class method: Each advanced-science faculty member provides "learning tips" once in the first semester and once in the second semester. We also provide guidance for independent studies during office hours.

Grade evaluation method: Using questionnaires submitted after class, 60% of students will understand the content of each class, and 40% will complete the summer vacation assignment report and the resubmitted report after correction.

Notice:

Precautions on enrollment : None in particular.
Course advice: None in particular.

Foundational subjects : All subjects studied so far

Related subjects: Trans Exercise of All Program Ⅰ(3rd year), Trans Exercise of All Program II (4th), Graduation Thesis (5th)

Attendance advice : If a student is late often, a warning may be given and an absence recorded.
