事項 Use of of songs in English to reflect upon diverse topics
概要 Song 1: "When you gonna learn" by Jamiroquai. Used to reflect upon pollution, the state of the world in regards to nature, especially after over 20 years from the song's release. Students were asked to find some vocabulary, fill in some blanks in the song and then answer some questions to reflect. Students were later asked about this experience and reported they liked being called to reflect and that they were impressed at how not much seemed to have change in 20 years. Song 2: As it was (Harry Styles). Used at the end of the spring semester with first year students, in order to reflect upon their first semester (What are some things that changed within them during their first semester). Their reflections were interesting, because they showed changes from lifestyle, friendship to attitudes towards their academic life.
