授業方針・テーマ Title: Freshman Seminar
Theme: The mind and thought  Credit : 2 
Instructor: Adam Weitemier

[Course Description]
People rely heavily on many mental abilities to move successfully throughout their day. For example, we understand when and where to direct our attention, we plan ahead and use our motivation to encourage ourselves, and we develop and reflect upon opinions that guide our behavior. In this course, we will explore research that focuses on human behavior and thought. Students will then work in pairs or groups to choose a research topic and also gather their own information to accompany it. Students will present their topics at the end of the course. Please note that this course will be given entirely in English.
