| ○講義概要 |
This course is for students with a strong interest in business and economics. The goal of the course is to develop students’ proficiency in listening and speaking through materials related to the discipline of economics (e.g., newspaper articles, BBC and CNN news reports). Basic economic terminology and vocabulary will be taught in relation to the topics studied.
Students will become familiar with the language, vocabulary, and style of business and economic prose, and will learn to process information analytically, to distinguish fact from opinion, to think critically about the ideas presented, and to express opinions. This is a continuation of the first semester course, which should be completed first.
