授業の目的・内容 ／Course Objectives	This semi-elective course refines the advanced writing skills developed in previous writing courses, focusing on the production of professional, research-based texts. Students will move beyond simple argumentation to develop the ILMRDC structure (Introduction, Literature Review, Methods, Results, Discussion, and Conclusion) or the formal research essay. Following a process-oriented approach, students will learn to analyze, evaluate, and synthesize diverse scholarly sources into a coherent 2,000-word research paper. Key areas include developing academic vocabulary, improving flow, and using APA style to integrate evidence persuasively.
授業の形式・方法と履修上の注意 ／Teaching method and Attention the course	Classes are conducted as student-centered workshops designed to spark a lasting interest in academic inquiry. Rather than passive learning, students take the lead by conducting their own research and applying the ILMRDC framework. Through a process-oriented approach, a 2,000-word research paper is built section-by-section. This involves collaborative brainstorming, peer synthesis, and detailed instructor feedback on content and grammatical accuracy. Success in this course requires a proactive mindset and a commitment to the revision process. As students explore a topic of their interest, they are expected to manage their schedule independently to meet drafting deadlines. Multiple revisions are mandatory; a final paper cannot be submitted without its preliminary drafts. All work must be typed, professionally formatted, and follow APA academic standards.

事前・事後学修の内容 ／Before After Study	Before Study: Students are expected to conduct independent research, including locating scholarly articles, narrowing research questions, and preparing data for analysis. Reading assigned reference sections from the textbook and preparing draft outlines for the classes is essential. After Study: The primary focus is the iterative revision process. Students are expected to spend approximately 90–120 minutes per week previewing and reviewing course content.
