5.成績評価方法
Assessment will be performed by teachers from Aomori University of Health and Welfare, with 60% of the final mark for achievement in English and 40% for social and cultural participation and development. A diary in English will be written during the course and an interview in English will be carried out during the final days of the course. Students' social and cultural activities will be monitored through daily contact and through their diaries.
6.授業の工夫している点（授業改善アンケート結果やピアレビュー結果から検討した内容等）
This course is very sensitive to student feedback, and in the past this has prompted changes of destination, timing and course delivery. The current format has proved very popular with participants.
7.備考(学生へのメッセージ、購入が必要な物品等)
The cost of the course will be announced nearer the time and will include travel, home stay and English classes.
To ensure small classes, it may be necessary to limit the number of participants for each destination. In this case, places will be allocated by lottery once registration for the course has closed.
