講義内容  英語で詩や短編小説、その他の創作を行なうコース。はじめに、良い文学作品の鍵は何かを具体例を取りあげて学び、次いで、そこで修得した技術を応用して、各人が創作を行ってゆく。授業と期末レポートでは英語の詩や歌、物語や広告の文句、寸劇などの創作を行なう。
講義計画  Words that we often associate with creative writing are “poetry,”“story,”and“drama.”But learning to write creatively can make any kind of writing−from academic papers to New Year's cards−more colorful, expressive, and interesting.
 With this in mind, Creative Writing intends to give you several opportunities to expand your skills and interests in expressing yourself more vividly and descriptively in English. Though we will focus on the popular genres of poetry,short story, and drama, you will discover how becoming more familiar with literary concepts such as symbol, metaphor, plot, and point of view and writing processes such as brainstorming, drafting, revising, and editing can contribute to becoming a more creative writer. You will also discover that creative writing can be enjoyable and satisfying.
 Classes will be conducted in English using a mixture of short lecture, discussion, creative writing activities, and student readings. Because success in writing creatively depends greatly on our ability to remove inhibition and “open up our creative selves,” You will be asked to assist in creating a friendly, relaxed, and supportive atmosphere in and outside of the classroom. After all, it is through the courage to share ideas and writing with others, that aperson can discover his or her own creative voice.
評価方法  Evaluation will be based on a portfolio of creative writing, attendance, and enthusiasm and effort in class. Since assignments are related to class activities, it is essential that you come to class on time and participate fully.
