授業の形式・方法と履修上の注意 ／Teaching method and Attention the course	We will spend approximately three weeks per chapter, and in this semester we cover Chapters 6-10. In the first week of each chapter we will analyze the sample reading for the target writing objectives. Students will learn how to incorporate those examples into their own writing. Attention will also be given to vocabulary building.  In the second and third week of each chapter, students will be given more exercises to develop their skills with the chapter's target. Each week students will spend some time on fluency exercises designed to increase their English writing speed. Students will also work in groups to solve problems and to brainstorm.
事前・事後学修の内容 ／Before After Study	Before each class, students should look up unknown vocabulary and expressions in the textbook (60 minutes). After each class, complete any exercise that was not covered in class (30 minutes). Students will be assigned weekly homework, which will include fluency writing practice, making brainstorming and outline notes, completing first drafts of essays, revising essays, and final drafts (1-3 hours).
