| Course Description | The Seminar is central to activities at SFC where faculty members and students work together on a diversity of issues as a prelude to the Graduation Project. At SFC, students do not merely learn answers to given problems. Education at SFC aims to nurture and send out leaders of the future who are able to identify problems and create methods of resolving them. Through participation in such research, students work on real problems in society and gain a high level of expertise, and with this in hand, they embark on their Graduation Project that will be their "fruit of designing the future" as well as a personal proposal as they advance towards the future as individuals. |

Course Summary
One continuing unresolved issue affecting foreign language education in Japan is the fact that learners experience limited exposure to the target languages they are supposed to be learning. As a result, the learning process becomes more difficult and many learners experience difficulties maintaining their motivation. This problem is particularly evident among intermediate level learners who could benefit from language-learning environments that provide exposure and opportunities to try and test newly acquired expressions and knowledge. Several questions emerge. For example, what are the basic elements necessary for creating learning communities where foreign language learners can experience exposure to the languages they learn? Another question is, what can be done to help learners re-discover the enjoyment of learning as they did when they started? Furthermore, another question considers whether it is possible to integrate individual learning with other socially accepted fun activities? Finally, one last question invites analysis of the feasibility and limitations associated with introducing practical “Cooperative Learning Projects” into the curriculum.
This seminar (Kenkyu-kai) focuses on foreign language education and the creation of efficient learning communities. Part of our study involves looking at successful learning communities where foreign language learners experience intercultural communication based on the promotion of Plurilingualism. We conduct several observations on current projects and analyze them from two perspectives: realism and sustainability. Consequently, we conduct analysis and discussions on the feasibility of transforming language learning communities into realistic projects.
