授業の目的・内容 ／Course Objectives	This course is designed to improve writing skills. The unifying concept is “creative writing”. The students develop their writing process with a degree of autonomy. The students write essays, letters, poems, creative non-fiction, or fiction based on their choice of medium to express ideas concerning various topics on a weekly basis. There will also be a final report to reflect the development of skills. The focus of the class is to develop writing forms and expression of ideas in natural English.
授業の形式・方法と履修上の注意 ／Teaching method and Attention the course	This class is designed to influence learner autonomy. The material should be examined before writing starts. Students are encouraged to self-direct by developing the focus of their essays or individual writing styles. The students not only practice with their chosen forms of writing but also give scores reflecting personal evaluations of their own work. Since the situation with COVID creates many changes and disruptions, is has been decided that this class will be online for the entire fall semester. The class will meet briefly during the 1st, 7th, and 13th weeks on Zoom. This will be for sharing important information and helping if students have any questions for the teacher. The students are not required to attend these meetings, as all the weekly information will be available on-demand. However, if you need extra help, please join.
