副題 Who are you, and what do you want? Developing a sense of self with Abraham Maslow.
授業概要 This course is intended to encourage and assist students in strengthening their English vocabulary and in developing their analytical skills through discussion and a detailed analysis of materials related to 3 topic modules. The course will require frequent and active use of all 4 main language skills.

Throughout the semester, participants will be presented with 3 topic modules which will form the basis for learning activities. Each module will last for 4-5 weeks and will focus on relating aspects of topics such as Society and Values, Stresses and Tensions, and Finding Fulfilment, to Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs (マズローの欲求段階説).

Discussion and analyses of these topics will rely on vocabulary development and analyses of a selection of materials which will be sourced from recent journalism, film, short stories, poetry, art and music. Discussion activities, both in pairs and in larger groups, will centre on an understanding and interpretation of these materials and how they relate to Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs.
学修目標 By the end of the semester lexical acquisition and understanding should show considerable progress, as should conversational skills. Vocabulary and reading proficiency for the topics discussed in class should approach the standards required by Cambridge First Certificate. It is hoped that this course will also acquaint students with a number of pertinent social issues and that though discussion and reading, they will develop their own sense of self and broaden their understanding of the issues under discussion.
