CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning): Science and Society
Students will learn about general science and society topics in English with Japanese support when needed.
Examples of topics that will be studied and discussed in class include the following:
Introducing basic concepts within the sciences
Science and technology in modern times
Artificial Intelligence in Society
Science and the environment
Ethics in science
Impact of scientific innovation
Topics will be general enough for non-science students to understand. The course is based on the framework of CLIL, and students will be encouraged to think critically, offer opinions, and get involved in discussions within an active learning classroom. Students will learn about scientific content in English and simultaneously improve both their English language skills and content knowledge. Lessons will be scaffolded to ensure that students have the right vocabulary and grammar to achieve each lesson's objective. This course will be of interest to students who wish to improve their English while learning about topics in the sciences.
Students will be able to:
Improve their presentation skills (in both group and individual presentations)
Develop their critical thinking and discussion skills on the themes presented in class
Deepen their intercultural awareness
Improve their skills in reading, writing, listening and speaking in English along with vocabulary acquisition and grammar knowledge
Advance their media literacy skills
Enhance their research skills (needed for presentations)
