授業の概要 This course is designed to help you become more aware of the hidden dangers in food ‘manufactured’ by food producers and global companies and their increasing power over our diets and lifestyles. You will be introduced to the data and facts that influence and, to a great extent, determine what we choose to eat on a daily basis. You will learn how the labels on our food are carefully designed by the producers to influence and change our buying habits. We live in the age of food that is made through ever-advancing technologies, many of which we are not even aware. After reading the textbook and handouts and completing assignments you will be able to approach food more objectively with an increased awareness of emerging dangers in our fast-moving society. The course topics include labeling on food, food safety, obesity and biotechnology.

準備学習 You are mainly required (and not just recommended) to read about 10 or more pages of assigned part of textbook every week before each class. Be ready to answer some questions about the readings and have your own opinions/questions to share with your classmates. It is essential that each of you participate in talk/discussion time so that the understanding of the main topic "Food and Technology" will be deepened further. Writing assignments consist of at least two 'Response & Reflection' papers as well as one 'Summary of your own group research presentation'. The summary should have a reference page. If these are not turned in by the end of make-up exam period, you cannot pass the course. Details of above papers will be announced in the 1st class. Regular reading quizzes will be given in each class so you must do the pre-study reading beforehand.
