Movie English and Culture belongs to The Practical English Course Group. This course aims to create a relaxing environment where students effectively learn English while entertaining themselves with movies. On top of that, the teacher will lead the students to cultural details which might easily be neglected. Blockbuster and classic movies from different English-speaking countries will be chosen for the learning of English expressions, discussion of ideas, and elements regarding culture, as well as literature. Parts of the movies will be adopted for the use of oral practice; the cultural and literary meaning underlying the movies will also be pointed out for the in-depth understanding of both English and movies. シラバス及び授業内容 第一週1st orientation and introduction 第二週2nd basic film vocabulary 第三週3rd Movie 1 introductions Theme 1: SCI-FI (Science Fiction) 第四週4th Movie 1 continued 第五週5th Movie 1 continued 第六週6th Movie 2 Introductions Theme 2: COMEDY 第七週7th Movie 2 continued 第八週8th Movie 2 concluded + review 第九週9th Mid Term: Project Presentation 第十週10th Movie 3 Introductions Theme 3: Drama 第十一週11th Movie 3 continued 第十二週12th Movie 3 continued 第十三週13th Movie 4 introductions Theme 4: CULTURE / Culture talk 第十四週14th Movie 4 continued 第十五週15th theme 4, culture movie continued 第十六週16th group presentation preparation 第十七週17th Final exam: Second Presentation: group presentation 第十八週18th final exam: Second Presentation: group presentation 主に使用する教科書及び参考書 NONE 評価方法 30% Mid term: Project and presentation 30% Final exam: Group or individual presentation concerning one of the themes covered, according to the lecturer's discretion. 15% Participation: Interaction of students, including questions asked of the teacher and the presenters. 15% Attendance 10% Culture Quiz
