11002169

This course will use films, novels, and other texts to introduce students to Japanese-American culture, history, and identity. During the course we will learn about and discuss topics such as: cultural identity and multiculturalism, and explore questions such as: 'What does it mean to be Japanese, American, or Japanese-American?' and 'Do we each only have one ethnic identity?' The course has two major goals. The first goal is for students to practice and develop language abilities to use English in typical University classroom situations. Students will participate in activities including class discussions, student-led debates, and exciting class projects. Students will complete assignments including writing a reflection paper, writing a medium length academic report, and giving oral presentations. The second goal is for each student to learn about the story of Japanese-Americans and use that knowledge to help them as they prepare to graduate from Kanda and enter the world as global citizens, living and working in international communities in Japan and abroad.
