To develop English communication skills necessary for functioning in a non-Japanese language and cultural environment. This includes living and working abroad and working with foreigners in Japan in the various fields offered by the School of Architecture.

The course is limited to 20 students. If there are more than 20 students, the instructor will discuss the situation with the students and determine the class roster.

Initial stages of the course will focus on reinforcing and developing English communication skills, both linguistic and cultural.

Focus will then turn to specifics in the fields of Structural Architecture, Building Systems, Architectural Design, Interior Design, Urban Design, and Landscape Design.

For example, a student will choose aspects of their field and describe the situations in detail. Then the instructor will guide the class through questions and discussions on the situations and provide linguistic formations and communication insights that will enhance the students' abilities to function in an English environment.

Grades will be based on students' oral and aural performances, participation, presentations, and writing assignments.

In class verbally and in comments on papers.

No textbook is required; however, a ruled notebook (about 19cm x 24cm) is required. A small notebook (for example, a Moleskine 9cm x 14cm) is strongly suggested.

Strongly Suggested:
A Visual Dictionary of Architecture, 2nd Edition; by Francis D.K. Ching:
Wiley, 2011 – ISBN-10: 0470648856 / ISBN-13: 978-0470648858

Shinjuku Campus: Thursday, 13:00 - 13:50 (A-2737) and by appointment.

Each of you will be generating your own "textbook" as the class progresses, so there is no required textbook. Each student is required to have a ruled notebook (about 19cm x 24cm). After each class, students should review their notes to embed the language patterns and vocabulary upon which we are focusing. Moreover, in each class, students will be assigned thought exercises that will develop their English language skills and prepare them to function in non-Japanese discursive formations.
