The last class in this semester

On July 17th, we had the last class in this semester. How fast time has passed!

In the class, we threw a surprise party for Tatsuya and Miyako because July 22 is Tatsuya’s birthday and Miyako will leave Japan for studying abroad from August.

So, we gave a photo-album and a picture frame for them. They looked really happy and surprised! We also ate a delicious cake! We had a great and special time!

After that, we moved on to the project meeting of free paper “I”. Firstly, we shared new ideas with each other which could be the main topic of the free paper. All ideas were interesting and attractive, so we could not decide the best one in the class. So, group B will discuss these ideas later and make a decision.

Then, we discussed regarding support money from companies. There were many things we had to decide, but the discussion was tough because it is related to money.

Actually, we have faced many problems because this is the first time for us to make a free paper. We will keep going to make effort to make the wonderful free paper.

Anyway, it was the last class for Miyako, she will be back September 2016 though. We will miss her soon, but we are looking forward to her coming back with much confidence.

I wrote this article on July 22 on which the exam week started! Summer vacation is almost here! Don’t fall your class! Also, don’t miss the updated information on our Facebook and Twitter! We took new pictures for our webpage, so please follow us and check them out!

Project meeting and Lecture from members from "Iki"

On July 10^th, we held a meeting about our big project, free paper “I.” During the class time, we first gave a progress report on each group’s work. Then, we discussed what we had to do within the spring semester, and finally decided the goals we should achieve for this semester. We did not have any idea how to create free paper, but as we have hold meetings many times, we gradually know what to do in order to carry on this project.

 

 

 

 

After the seminar class, we met some members of free paper “Iki” during lunch time. Iki is a traditional free paper in areas near Nagoya University and Nanzan University, that has been created by the students of these students. Their experience of how they have created "Iki" helps us a lot. Thank you!

They said that the latest “Iki” would be coming soon. Don’t miss it!

 

In the spring semester, only 1 week is left! How fast days have gone! There are still many problems we have to solve, but we have enjoyed every seminar class and our project!

Feedback on Research Paper

On July 3rd, we had 13th seminar class. The end of spring semester is approaching, and we are starting to write a research paper. This week, we gave feedback on our drafts of the research paper to each other.

We had read Misaki, Shiori, Miho, Haruka Ikuta, and Miyu’s drafts and wrote some comments in feedback sheets before the class. In the class, by exchanging the comments based on the sheet, we realized what we should improve in our paper. In addition, we reconfirmed some rules of academic writing. We could learn a lot to improve our ideas and academic writing skills from this class. All of them will help us make our research papers much better. 

              After the discussion about research papers, we discussed some important things to carry out the project to establish free paper "I." Creating and publishing free paper is not easy, so there are some troubles that we have to address. We will continue to make efforts!

In this semester, there are only 2 weeks left!  We will keep trying to improve our research papers and proceed with the project to create free paper "I". Please follow us on Facebook and Twitter, and check them out!

Project meeting

   Project meeting    

         The time flies so fast and July is coming!! How are you doing? The weather is getting hot and humid, but we have little rain this year. Please take care for your health in these hot days!!

 

       It has been 12 weeks since we started learning together in imai seminar. Since all of the presentation finished, we used whole class for project meeting. This week, we discussed each group's idea based on a rough draft of a proposal.

         Through exchanging opinions with each other, we tried to make them better to complete the proposal by next week. As we mentioned before, there are three groups in terms of contents of the free paper such as A) communication research, B) information of Nanzan University and C) culture. After discussing in class, we had a time to rethink our own ideas in each group.

 

  In group A, members will send out questionnaires and give opportunities to consult. Also, they will analyze them based on communication theory in an understandable way. You may notice how interesting communication studies are!! 

        In group B, members will write information about Nanzan University. For example, they will make a calendar which has schedules of events in fall semester. In addition, lots of information related to international exchanges that you may not know will be introduced. If you know more about Nanzan by reading these contents, your school lives can be more fulfilling!!

 

 

In group C, members will introduce students’ activities on imai seminar, the meaning of the title of free paper “I” and amusements related to communication. All of them will catch the eyes of you, and you may get interested in imai seminar and communication studies!

     As you can see, we always make effort to fulfill our quest. Our project meeting will carry on to create free paper "I". Don't miss it!!!
