Assigned Department Objectives
Teaching Method
Outline:
This course consists of a comprehensive exercise and special research. In the summary exercise, students reflect on the content of their major field that they have studied in their fourth and fifth years of regular study and in their first and second years of major study, as well as deepen their study of specialized subjects and related subjects that form the basis of special research. In addition, students will learn how to conduct literature research, prepare English summaries, and write reports, and acquire basic research techniques. In special research, students work on individual research topics under the supervision of their respective supervisors. Through this process, students will deepen their learning content regarding research and develop design abilities for problem discovery and problem solving. The results will be presented at special research conferences, etc. to develop presentation skills, and will be compiled into a special research paper to develop ethical thinking skills.
Style:
How to proceed will be explained in the first week based on the general table and individual table of the ``Implementation Plan for Lessons in Summary Subjects'' and this syllabus. Evaluation will be performed by combining the evaluation of the summary exercise and special research. Special research will be evaluated based on special research papers, interim presentations, final presentations, the status of research efforts, etc. In the summary exercise, evaluation will be based on literature research, study reflection report, etc.
The viewpoints and criteria for evaluation will be in accordance with the "Perspectives and standards for evaluating grades for learning/inquiry and their results (papers) in the 'Study Summary Subjects'" which will be distributed in the first week. [450 hours of class time]
Notice:
The summary exercise will be held for one period (90 minutes) every week, so please be sure to attend. In addition, please communicate thoroughly with your academic advisor to determine your research topic so that it is based on the courses you have learned in your regular course or the courses you will take in your major. When solving problems, be sure to include your own ideas and arguments and carry out research activities independently.
