【講義目的 /Lecture Objectives】
 In light of the recent changes in societal dynamics, there has been a growing attenuation of connections among individuals. On the other hand, with the advancement of internet technology, it has become easier to connect with people worldwide who share common goals and interests. This lecture aims to foster individuals who actively contribute to the development of communities in such a contemporary society.

【到達目標 /Learning Outcomes】

• Demonstrate a multifaceted understanding of the challenges facing communities and take proactive actions towards problem-solving.
• Articulate ideas for the development of communities in English using academic terminology and logical reasoning.

【講義内容 /Lecture Content】
This lecture not only involves academic input regarding communities but also aims to acquire practical insights through the application of the gained knowledge in case studies during group work. The goal is to obtain knowledge that can be practically implemented in real community settings.
Therefore, the 90-minute class is divided into 60 minutes of lecture, 20 minutes of group discussion, and 10 minutes of reflection. The outcomes of the group work will be evaluated through group presentations in the latter part of the lecture.
It's important to note that there are no restrictions on the use of generative AI in this lecture.
