Course Description
A short kanji test will be given at the start of each class. To develop their reading comprehension, students will read textbooks on education, language, economics, and neuroscience and introductory textbooks in specialized fields and practice reading what is written in these texts accurately.
Students will then work with their classmates to critically examine the texts from different perspectives. Moreover, a Bibliobattle will be held, where students will present and read books they have selected to their classmates. During the Bibliobattle activity, students will enjoy reading books written in Japanese and grow their overall interest in reading.
