我々人間は、自分たちの住む地球のことをどこまで知っているだろうか？人間に比べて地球は空間スケールが桁違いに大きく、そこで起こっている現象の時間スケールも桁違いに長い。しかも、複雑でいろいろな側面を持っている。そんな地球を机の上の勉強だけで理解するのは不可能である。手足を動かし、実際の地球に触れて実感することが、地球を理解する第一歩である。本実験では、様々なテーマに関する実験を通じて、地球の実態や営みの様々な側面や、それらを探究する多様な手法・視点に触れることで、地球への興味・理解を深める。

地球で起こる諸現象や、地球科学の諸分野および様々な研究手法に触れることで、地球への興味と理解を深めることができる。
地球を理解するための多角的な視点を持つことができる。

数人ずつの班に分かれて、地球および太陽系に関する複数のテーマに関して、2週間ずつの実験を、初回ガイダンスとフィードバックを合わせて全15回（天候不順等に備えた予備回１回を含む）行う。
実験テーマは、太陽惑星系、大気圏、海洋圏、固体圏、テクトニクス、地質、古生物、表層環境などのカテゴリーから設定する。具体的には、惑星探査データ解析、電磁気観測、気象観測、地震波解析、野外での地質・岩石・鉱物の観察、環境解析、などの実験を行う予定。本年度のテーマの詳細は、初回のガイダンス時に説明する。

初回に行うガイダンスに必ず出席すること。ガイダンスでは、本実験の概略と個々の実習テーマについて説明し、班分けのための登録を行う。ガイダンスに出席しない者の履修は認めない。
高校地学の履修は前提としない。

授業への参加状況、実験内での課題への取組姿勢、課題などを総合的に評価する。詳細は初回授業で説明する。

ガイダンス及び各実験課題において指示する。
実験課題によっては、事前の準備が必要なものあるので、実験スケジュールは必ず事前に確認しておくこと。

「学生教育研究災害傷害保険」などの傷害保険への加入をしておくこと。
野外実習を伴う実験の場合、交通費等の経費の負担（個人負担）が生じる場合がある。詳しくは、初回のガイダンス時に説明する。

後期開講の「地球科学実験」とは同一科目です。

人間が駆使する諸科学・諸技術において、ルネッサンス以降の数世紀を費やして３次元と２次元との間の図形の変換理論を形成してきた。数学的には「投影」、図形科学的には「投象」と呼ぶが，その理論の概要の学習と作図演習を行う。今やコンピューターによる作図が主流となっているが、ここではその原理となる理論を学ぶとともに、作図リテラシーの習得を目的としている。
理系学生にとっては、幾何学の基礎知識となるとともに、さまざまな物体（機械製品、建築物、土木構築物など）や空間を２次元図面として表現し、また、逆に２次元で示された図面から３次元の物体を造りだすために必要な能力を養うことができる。また、文系学生にとっては、ルネッサンス以降の絵画や彫刻、都市図などの歴史をたどることになり、現在の芸術および我々の身の回りにあふれるさまざまな「かたち」への理解につながる。
必ずしも理工系の学生専用の科目として開講しているものではないので、中学卒業程度の幾何学知識があれば履修に支障はない。文科系学生にも十分履修可能である。ただし作図演習を伴う実習的授業であるから、道具が必要となる。

投象の概念を理解するとともに、基礎的作図法を習得する。

以下の内容について講義する。講義順は前後することがある。
１　　　投象の概念と諸方法：オリエンテーション（作図道具の解説）
２　　　投象の歴史概説：立体図形表示における射影変換とアフィン変換の発見
３　　　軸測投象の原理：図形の要素（点・直線・平面）の表示
４・５　軸測投象の演習：図形の要素（点・直線・平面）の相関
６　　　正投象の原理：平面図と立面図表示の原理
７・８　正投象の演習：図形の要素（点・直線・平面）の相関
９・１０　　副投象の原理と演習
１１・１２　一般的回転法の原理と演習
１３　 ラバットメントの原理と演習
１４ 　投象における計量的性質の取り扱い方
１５　　フィードバック

履修に当たり教科書、三角定規およびコンパスが必要。道具の説明は授業初回に行う。

理解度確認試験70％、平常点（提出課題など）30％によって評価する。
上記に加え、授業への出席と参加の状況も考慮事項とすることがある。

授業後のできるだけ早い時期に、授業内容を見直し演習課題を行うことが、習得において効果的である。講義よりむしろ演習課題を通して理解を深めることが必要な科目と考えていただきたい。

授業形態は講義だが作図演習を行なうため、履修者制限を行うことがある。

Academic writing & listening

For the development of students' skills in English for General Academic Purposes (EGAP), English Writing-Listening A (EWLA) consists of three components: writing, listening, and vocabulary.

For practice with writing, students identify, recognize, or understand basic elements of academic writing and, then, recall and apply this knowledge in the process of organizing and revising a short academic essay of at least 300 words. Under the guidance of the instructor they learn necessary foundational academic writing skills as stated in the Course Goal section below.

For practice with listening, students take the online course known as GORILLA (Global Online Resources for International Language Learning Assistance) outside class. They are assessed on their listening proficiency through weekly online assignments, as well as the four tests that the instructor administers in class.

For vocabulary learning, students use the standard reference book titled “Kyoto University Vocabulary Database 1110.” Like the listening component, students independently study words from the general academic list that the instructor assigns (usually 50 words a week) and are tested on a number of these words weekly.

By the end of this course, students will acquire the following skills at varying levels. Students should be able to:
- Recognize and use basic academic words in English
- Process general academic discourse presented aurally
- Identify the locations, functions, and features of the standard elements of essay introduction paragraphs (i.e., hook, topic statements, general statements and thesis statement) and apply this knowledge to write suitable introduction paragraphs for short academic essays
- Identify the locations, functions, and features of the standard elements of body paragraphs (i.e., topic sentence, supporting sentences, detail sentences, concluding sentence) and apply this knowledge to write suitable body paragraphs for short academic essays
- Identify the locations, functions, and features of the standard elements of conclusion paragraphs (i.e., summary of main points, final statement) and apply this knowledge to write suitable conclusion paragraphs for short academic essays
- Recognize basic methods of maintaining the unity (e.g., definitions) and coherence (e.g., transitional words) of ideas in short academic essays, and apply this knowledge to writing.
- Recall and apply basic conventions (e.g., punctuation) when formatting short academic essays
- Understand basic paraphrasing techniques (e.g., using synonyms, changing structure) to integrate information from external sources, recognize basic citation conventions, and utilize this knowledge to avoid plagiarism
- Understand the writing process and utilize it for drafting and editing to produce short academic essays
- Combine knowledge of (i) the structure of a short academic essay, with allowances made for rhetorical style such as problem-solution and argumentation, and (ii) the writing process, and apply this knowledge to produce a short academic essay of at least 300 words

In-class activities are related to the contents of the textbook. Though there may be some adjustments in certain cases, the schedule of this course is as follows:

Chapter 1 Introduction to Academic Writing
Chapter 2 Paragraphs & Topic Sentences
Chapter 3 Supporting Sentences
Chapter 4 Paragraph Writing
Chapter 5 Writing Process
Chapter 6 Introduction Paragraph
Chapter 7 Conclusion Paragraph
Chapter 8 Citations & Paraphrase

Academic writing & listening

For the development of students' skills in English for General Academic Purposes (EGAP), English Writing-Listening A (EWLA) consists of three components: writing, listening, and vocabulary.

For practice with writing, students identify, recognize, or understand basic elements of academic writing and, then, recall and apply this knowledge in the process of organizing and revising a short academic essay of at least 300 words. Under the guidance of the instructor they learn necessary foundational academic writing skills as stated in the Course Goal section below.

For practice with listening, students take the online course known as GORILLA (Global Online Resources for International Language Learning Assistance) outside class. They are assessed on their listening proficiency through weekly online assignments, as well as the four tests that the instructor administers in class.

For vocabulary learning, students use the standard reference book titled “Kyoto University Vocabulary Database 1110.” Like the listening component, students independently study words from the general academic list that the instructor assigns (usually 50 words a week) and are tested on a number of these words weekly.

By the end of this course, students will acquire the following skills at varying levels. Students should be able to:
- Recognize and use basic academic words in English
- Process general academic discourse presented aurally
- Identify the locations, functions, and features of the standard elements of essay introduction paragraphs (i.e., hook, topic statements, general statements and thesis statement) and apply this knowledge to write suitable introduction paragraphs for short academic essays
- Identify the locations, functions, and features of the standard elements of body paragraphs (i.e., topic sentence, supporting sentences, detail sentences, concluding sentence) and apply this knowledge to write suitable body paragraphs for short academic essays
- Identify the locations, functions, and features of the standard elements of conclusion paragraphs (i.e., summary of main points, final statement) and apply this knowledge to write suitable conclusion paragraphs for short academic essays
