授業概要 / Course Description
This course is designed for students who have already studied up to level 5 in the Japanese language program at Kansai University, or to an equivalent level elsewhere. In this course, the students will further improve upper-advanced level grammar, expressions and phrases in Japanese for upper-advanced proficiency which is equivalent to N1 in Japanese Proficiency Language Test. It also measures more advanced competence necessary for taking regular courses in a Japanese university.
The course focuses on oral communication skills, i.e., integration of speaking and listening in Japanese. Students will learn to comprehend orally presented materials such as coherent conversations, news reports, and lectures spoken at natural speed in a broad variety of settings. In addition, students will learn how to follow the ideas presented in these materials and summarize in their own words. Finally, students will learn about various socio-pragmatic aspects of Japanese communication, such as various formality levels in speech, style-mixing strategies, and dynamism of interaction among different communities within Japan.到達目標 / Course Objectives
Upon completion of this course, in Japanese, students will be able to:
・Understand announcements and messages on concrete and abstract topics spoken in standard dialect at normal speed.
・Follow extended speech and complex lines of argument provided the topic is reasonably familiar, and the direction of the talk is sign-posted by explicit markers.
・Give clear, detailed descriptions and presentations on a wide range of subjects related to his/her field of interest, expanding and supporting ideas with subsidiary points and relevant examples.
・Develop a clear argument, expanding and supporting his/her points of view at some length with subsidiary points and relevant examples.
*Students in this course will be encouraged to aim for N1 in proficiency level in Nihongo Noryoku Shiken (Japanese Proficiency Test).
