Abstract
This report discusses the classroom practices common in classes of "Academic Japanese" (a Japanese language subject) and "Politics and Economics" (a Liberal Arts subject) for Seigakuin University's international students. These subjects were introduced in 2018 to help these students gain basic knowledge about the Japanese society and perform better in the specialized subjects they have to learn in the second grade. This report introduces the class contents and presents our questionnaire results on related matters. We present relevant effects and problems, including the future course directions, by examining learners' awareness regarding the classes.
