JPS303: Advanced Japanese III
This unit is designed to develop skills in all areas of Japanese language (reading, writing, listening and speaking) to an advanced level of proficiency. Students learn to discuss a wider range of topics as well as substantially increase their knowledge of vocabulary and kanji. This unit continues to focus on further increasing students' skills in intercultural communication so that they will be able to communicate in a manner which is culturally as well as linguistically appropriate. Authentic Japanese materials are chosen from a wide range of genres for students to understand and appropriately utilise in their expression in Japanese. The unit covers socio-linguistic aspects of Japanese communication including register, pragmatics and rhetorical conventions. The use of online resources provides students with opportunities to use Japanese as much as possible.
