授業の概要

テーマ：The Global Water Crisis
In this course you will learn about the different water issues around the world and the varying effects that are felt depending on the country’s level of development. We will focus on primarily understanding different countries’ unique issues with water and measures that are being taken to address such issues. We will also look at individual persons or groups' experience with the water issues to develop a more personal and intimate understanding of said issues. The autumn semester will mainly focus on water stressed nations with a specific focus on human actions leading to water scarcity.

What you will do each week
We will look at different types of text to deepen our understanding of the water issues at hand. Particularly websites that are directly involved in supporting and addressing said water issues. Although the word text is used, you are free to include ideas, research from non-written sources such as videos or podcasts to support their ideas. You will also write a weekly research journal to document what you have learnt and may make products such as booklets, leaflets, PowerPoint presentations and webpages to present what you have learnt to other students.

Autumn course outline
After the initial introductory week, there will be two cycles, one which focuses on water scarcity and water stress (weeks 2-7) and one which focuses on any kind of water issue that interests you (weeks 8-13), followed by a final review of the semester and self-assessment in week 14. In each of the two cycles we will learn for one week about basic issues and concepts for understanding the topic and look for one week at the stories of a range of people affected, using texts provided by the teacher. You will then find written and audio-visual texts yourself of stories of the effects of water on our ecosystem and climate to better your understanding of their experiences for two weeks. In the final two weeks of each cycle, you will prepare and share a product (booklets, leaflets, PowerPoint presentation and webpages) to present your learning to other students.
