Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
Assessment and permitted materials
This course uses continuous assessment (hat immanenten Prüfungscharakter). Students will be asked to complete a variety of tasks, in and beyond the classroom, with or without prior announcement. The bulk of these will be made up of short written revision tests, but they may also, for example, include stretches of graded reading (fluency & pronunciation), reading comprehension and grammar questions, dictation, listening and listening comprehension exercises, homework and so forth.Students are expected to be prepared for class, volunteer for translations, answer and ask questions etc. This general kind of active participation is not graded as such, but noticeably good (or bad) performance in this area can influence the grade.All tests & tasks are closed book, unless otherwise stated, no materials or aids are permitted (suitable exceptions can be made on request for students with a handicap).
Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
* Attendance is mandatory. No-shows for the first unit will have their registration revoked immediately; missing more 80 % of the total lesson time results in a failing grade. Tardiness may be counted as absence at the discretion of the lecturer.
* There is a zero-tolerance policy on cheating and plagiarism.
* More than 60 percentage points are required to pass the course (>60 → 4/D, >70 → 3/C, >80 → 2/B, >90 → 1/A), comprising the tasks set in the course of the semester, which are averaged after discarding the worst results. Students who distinguish themselves / acquire notoriety participation-wise may be awarded / docked up to 5 percentage points at the discretion of the lecturer.

* proficiency in English (should obviously be comfortable with the idea of studying a foreign language in English, C1 strongly recommended)
* about 8 h/week for self-study, incl. weeks with no class
* Introduction to the Japanese Language
* advance registration
* textbook (see below)At the end of this course students should
* be able to read, understand and translate into English basic Japanese sentences and dialogues;
* understand and be able to explain the grammar underlying these texts;
* have a vocabulary of at least ~500 words (active and passive) and ~200 kanji (passive only);
* be able to form correct (not necessarily idiomatic) sentences and short dialogues based on this knowledge.The focus will be on constructively building an understanding of Japanese grammar and vocabulary by way of Japanese-English translation. (The students will put this in active use, e. g. conversation, essay writing &c., in Japanese Communication.)To give an impression of the pace: The plan is to cover about one lesson of the textbook per week.
