科目名 Supervised Reading & Research II-1  Food & Technology
担当教員 徳永 昌彦
授業の目的、または到達目標 To explore the hidden problems we face today concerning food; examined from the different perspectives such as globalization, corporate greed, ever-advancing technologies being used, and religion and culture that influence our eating habits.
授業の概要 This course is designed to help students become more aware of the hidden danger mainly in food ‘manufactured’ by producers and global companies that are increasing their power over our eating habits and lifestyles. Students are exposed to the data and facts that influence and, to a great extent, determine what we ear. Students will learn how the labels on our food are carefully designed by the producers to deceive us in what we choose to buy. We live in the age of food that is made through advancing technologies of which we are not even aware. After reading chosen textbooks and handouts and completing assignments students will be able to approach food more objectively with an increased awareness of emerging dangers in our fast-moving society. The course topics range from labeling on food, food safety and biotechnology.
