In this course we will learn ways to teach ourselves English and improve our listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills with authentic materials like documentaries and written texts about the creation of Disney parks all over the world.   Students will be required to speak English at all times, and to give presentations based on their research in English.  We will improve our creative abilities by practicing the same techniques imagineers use to invent new attractions.  

Class activity may include two visits to the parks during the evening (using After 6 Passports), in which we will pretend to be abroad and enjoy English secrets of the park while speaking English at all times.

評価方法: Grades will be based on exams, preparation for class, participation, and presentations.

Students will be expected to:
-maintain high attendance, and come to class on time
-speak only in English in class, and during class trips.   Start speaking in English as soon as you walk through the door, and do not stop until you walk out the door at the end of class.  English class is not just our class time, but also our classroom.  Let’s create an English-only environment, so we can all improve faster!
-do all class and homework assignments, and make up for any work missed due to absence (it is the students' responsibility to turn in late assignments)
-demonstrate proficiency with listening, speaking, reading and writing strategies
-ask questions, respond to the teacher and other students, participate in pair and group work, take chances, help other students and have a positive attitude

注意事項: As soon as you register for this class, please send the instructor an e-mail (stillwel@kanda.kuis.ac.jp) to find out how to prepare for the first class.  

This is not a good class for students who have problems with attendance and coming to class on time.  If you find that you have to miss a class, it is your responsibility to find out about the homework that will be due for the next class.  When you come to the next class, have the new homework finished so you are ready to participate with your classmates.  If you come to class without your homework, you may not be permitted to participate, and you may be marked absent for the day.

1. Students will develop reading skills as they work with authentic written material related to the creation of many popular theme park attractions.  Spoken language skills will be practiced through group projects and presentations.  Students will develop their ability to learn language from movies through activities that promote the noticing of vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation in videos.

-Going abroad at home- two trips to Disney resort, in which students will apply what they have learned in class and interact in English outside the classroom.  Activities may include student-guided tours of researched areas, analysis of English used throughout the parks, recording paired conversations about attractions, and scavenger hunts requiring English usage in the park
