紹介文：米国のリベラル・アーツ大学の名門校、Bowdoin Collegeで政治学を教えるジェフリー・セリンジャー先生をお招きし、トランプ政権下で政治的分極化が進む米国で、学生が現代政治問題に対する取り組み方を教育し、こうした試みが政治学教育に資するのかについてお話いただきます。皆様の積極的な参加を待ちしております。
Seminar Description：Students in the United States today are expected to negotiate two starkly different trends: they are expected to manage the flood of information that surrounds them on electronic and social media sources, weighing drastically different―and politically polarized―accounts of the news. They are also expected to resist the over-simplified and politically attractive “solutions” proposed by American politicians. How do faculty at liberal arts institutions prepare students for this social and political landscape? In this workshop, Jeff Selinger will discuss the aims of what Americans call a “liberal arts education” and examine how these aims enrich a political science curriculum. He will also describe some of the pedagogical strategies educators use to help students appreciate interpretive differences and find complexity in the subjects they study.
