Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: In international studies classrooms, students learn about theories of international affairs, but may have few practical opportunities to test this knowledge in an international leadership context. Students for whom English is a foreign or second language may lack skills necessary to engage in international discussions, negotiations, and decision making. Many lack confidence in their ability to provide leadership in an English communication environment. As an increasing number of students seek to include an overseas element in their studies, or to prepare for international careers, how can teachers better prepare students to assume global leadership roles? Partially in response to this growing demand, universities in Japan and other Asian countries are introducing international studies programs and courses where English is the medium of instruction. Drawing on examples from the new cross-faculty International Institute program at Ritsumeikan University, discussion will focus on theoretical and practical aspects of teaching with active learning methods while using a sheltered approach to subject matter instruction. Particular attention will be given to the use of active learning strategies that seek to develop students・leadership capacity in international law and politics. These strategies include mock trials, negotiation and mediation exercises, debates, simulations, small group discussions and presentations.
