Course description |
In this course, students will learn about the structure of the human body and how it functions scientifically based on the human science for education, "BODY-MIND INTEGRATIVE SCIENCE. In this lecture, we will study the foundation of human life, which enables us to develop the will, body and mind to live well every day, from the perspective of the global environment that gave rise to life, the society in which we live in reality, the chemical substances and biological macromolecules adopted by life and the functions and interrelationships they produce, and the material foundation of adaptation that enables us to strive and learn. In addition to learning from the material basis of adaptation that enables us to strive and learn, this course includes observation of beating cardiomyocytes, practical training in extracting genomic DNA from cells, and Body-Mind Tuning in a supine position that unifies body and mind. This course is one of a group of general chemistry courses classified as specialized courses in the Department of Applied Chemistry. |
Expected Learning |
1) Do you understand the structure and function of the compounds that make up the "cell", the unit of life, and the material chemical basis of a moving body? 2) Do you understand the concept and design strategy of the survival system infrastructure of cells and individuals, which is the basis for the creation of life? 3) Do you understand the causes of and guidelines for preventing the deterioration of life and biomaterials (e.g., aging, fatigue, and disease, especially lifestyle-related diseases) and exhaustion? 4) Do you understand the differences in design principles between humans and non-human organisms and artifacts? As a member of a sustainable society, can you explain and practice the bio-chemical basis for life and human sustainability? Perspective of the Diploma Policy for this course: Please refer to the curriculum map in the course guide. |

Assessment/Grading |
The overall evaluation will be based on the following: the quality of the small assignments given each time during the class (30%), the quality of the records of Body-Mind Tuning in a supine position and awareness during the two weeks between the 3rd and 4th sessions (4/26-5/9) (presented in the 3rd session and entered into Google form every day) (30%), the quality of the PowerPoint presentation assignments submitted in the 10th and 15th sessions (20%), and the quality of the final report (20%). The overall evaluation will be based on the quality of the power point presentation assignments (20%) and the final report (20%). Credits will be awarded according to the following criteria based on the overall evaluation. S: 100 to 90 points, A: 89 to 80 points, B: 79 to 70 points, C: 69 to 60 points, D (fail) 59 to 0 points. Grade distribution (FY2020): S (61%), A (30%), B (2%), C (2%), D (5%) |
Message from instructor(s) |
Students are expected to understand the principle of life (cellular plasticity), which is capable of self-creation and change, and to learn how to respect the individual and live a life of self-innovation. Skeletal muscles are the part of the body that can be moved at will. Let's get through COVID-19 by understanding the basis of exercise physiology to activate our own cells, and by practicing supine body tuning and aerobic exercise on a daily basis. |
