This course is given in the seminar form for the first-year students on a specific subject in the field of the professor giving the lecture. Besides the passive learning of the knowledge accumulation type before the admission to university, the students are expected to know through this lecture how to learn actively by themselves with critical minds. In addition, they are also expected to extend their abilities of reading and writing together with the communication ability. By receiving the instruction of the professor belonging to a department different from yours in a small group of students, you can enlarge your scientific outlook, and know how to behave as a university student with the basic manners for a member of society. |
