【Course Objectives】

This course intends to help students acquire two essential skills for future careers: English and basic ideas of economics. This intermediate course covers "Can't We Just Print More Money?," a best seller written by the Bank of England economists to enhance the general public's understandings of basic economics without mathematical formula. It also covers current topics such as climate change and digital money. In the lectures, economics ideas are explained in Japanese, while analyses and discussions on the texts are given in English. If you take both spring and fall courses, you can read through the whole book, but you can take only take the fall course as each chapter of the book addresses a separate topic. The fall course mainly touches on financial economics issues. Active learning methods such as group discussions among students and conducting research on related topics are also deployed.

【Course Contents】

The course puts more emphasis on the intuitive grasp of messages and ideas in the book rather than giving detailed interpretations of the texts. Students are expected to conduct preparatory works through Canvas LMS. In the lecture, comments are given to the preparatory works and students make presentations after having a group discussion on the topic. The theories and ideas of economics are explained in Japanese. Students are asked to conduct review exercises after each lecture. Students may wish to refer to a Japanese translated version of the book, where appropriate.
