Notes

【Course Objectives】

The purpose of this course is 1) to understand the multiple meanings of 'liberal arts' in higher education and 2) to start thinking about their expected liberal arts learning through Study Abroad.

Firstly, students will understand that the term 'liberal arts' has been variously defined according to different time periods and different areas. The term reflected a variety of educational aims, contents and types of students based on the interrelation between society and education. In order to understand the multi-faceted 'liberal arts', this course takes a historical approach to see the major transformation of 'liberal arts' in university and society in Europe, the USA and Japan. Today's university education has its origin in medieval European universities when 'liberal arts' catered only for a few selected Christian elites. 'Liberal arts' then became the common requirements for social elites from the early modern period and its importance increased as growing modern nation states used university education to raise its future citizens. The emergence of mass society after the 20th century enabled universities to expand university education to the wider public and come to question the position of 'liberal arts' in universities. Globalized society in the 21st century has now required to reconsider the position of 'liberal arts' in universities in the USA, Europe and Asia.

Secondly, after understanding the overall development and importance of 'liberal arts' in higher education, students will start thinking about their expected liberal arts learning through the GLAP Study Abroad course. Students are encouraged to think about the importance of experiencing studying abroad as part of the liberal arts learning in university education by conducting individual research on Study Abroad partner institutions and sharing their understandings of and expectations towards Study Abroad experience in the class.
