授業の概要

In this course students will study ideas in the English-speaking (Anglophone) world. They will study ideas about the world, including religion, politics, culture, and art. They will learn about ideas such as "human rights," "development," and "freedom." They will learn how even basic ideas such as "time," "progress," and "reality" have complex meanings. They will learn about the diversity of ideas that exist in the Anglophone world, and how many people disagree about the true meaning of such ideas.

Throughout the course students will study a wide variety of media, including journalism, essays, fiction, film, television, social media, and video-sharing platforms. Students will analyze ideas (including stereotypes and incorrect beliefs) as they exist in these media.

科目目的

In class, students will have extensive practice in discussion and debate. In each class, the teacher will introduce new concepts and information, demonstrating how that new material connects to the content of earlier classes. Students will then take part in group discussions of the material.

The goal of the course is for students to understand how people in the English-speaking world think about themselves and the world around them. This theme connects with many different fields of study: culture, politics, society, literature, the arts, and more. Students in this course will be encouraged to connect their new knowledge with things they have learned in other classes at the Faculty of Policy Studies, giving them a larger perspective on world history and global culture.

到達目標

By the end of the course, students will have gained a deep and balanced understanding of Anglophone views of the world, with an emphasis on the diversity of ideas and cultures that exist within the English-speaking world. Students will also be proficient in researching in a variety of English-language media, including both traditional media (books, journalism, film) and new media (blogs, social media, video-sharing platforms).

This will deepen their understanding of both history and the global community, and aid them in navigating the complicated world of contemporary Anglophone culture.
