JAPN 403: Pre-Capstone
Course Description:
This course aims to develop an advanced level of academic communication through the formulation of research questions on linguistic and cultural topics, using appropriate research methods and critical thinking skills. Students utilize a variety of information sources to investigate, organize, and analyze the information. Taught in Japanese. (Prereq: JAPN 300 or equivalent with a C- or better)
Reflective Narrative:
JAPN is a course that is required for everyone who wants to major in Japanese Language and Culture. Before this semester, I was studying abroad in Japan and thinking of ideas that I could use for my capstone. I highly encourage anyone who is majoring in Japanese Language and Culture to explore the Capstone Gallery that is available for WLC majors. In terms of what we have done in class, I would say that this is one of the most important classes you will take as a Japanese major. From beginning work on your Capstone to developing the Survey Questions and Literature background it is essential that you attend every class. I am grateful that they are offering this class, as I have heard that they did not offer it before. This class is a thorough guide through the Capstone process and is imperative to the process of completing it.
