英語セミナー（特別上級） サブタイトル：　Raise the Issues: Comparing and Evaluating Different Viewpoints Students are expected to have advanced listening and reading skills in English to register for this class. The course covers controversial issues of international appeal, including economy vs. ecology, liberal arts education at college, globalization, and the right to die. Students will gain an understanding of American values and attitudes, reevaluate these assumptions, and develop their own points of view as they develop their speaking (classroom discussions, 15%) and writing skills. There will be short written assignments throughout the semester (30%). In the later half of the semester, each student presents two opposing views of a controversial topic to the class, and leads a class discussion (25%). The content of the presentation and discussion with their own opinion will be summarized in a term paper (30%). A strict attendance policy will be enforced; virtually no consideration is given to absences caused by extracurricular activities. Students should read the HP (http://web.hc.keio.ac.jp/~matsuoka/) before class.　 Textbook： Numrich, Carol. 2002. Raise the Issues: An Integrated Approach to Critical Thinking. Longman.
