準備学習 Classes will include lectures, discussions, presentations, and group work. At the beginning of the course the instructor will chose the Nobel laureates to be discussed, however, later in the course students are free to chose the Nobel laureates that they would prefer to discuss. In general, one class each week will be focused on presentation practice while the other will be focused on article review, lecture, and discussion.

Students will be required to prepare one group presentations over the course of the semester and one individual presentation. In addition, a 5-page research essay is due at the end of the 13th week. Apart from this, students are expected to review the material provided by the lecturer and to be prepared for class discussions. Although it is not required, the instructor hopes that students will take a “proactive” approach to their studies and are encouraged to bring in outside materials that they believe will help facilitate discussion.
