Hello!
Here are the topics,
deadline, and guidelines for our spring
semester final presentations. This time, you can get together with your classmates to do a collaborative presentation!
While I have already given all of you the handout about this final assignment, I am posting it here as well as another way to help remind you about what you can do for this assignment.

Topics
You
can choose one (1) of these topics:
- The origins of some family names in Japan
- A different immigrant community to the one you already presented on
- A social problem or issue in Japanese society (such as hikikomori, karoshi, bullying [いじめ], 18-year-old voting age, or some other problem or issue)
Resources (材料)
Here are some websites and links for you and your group to check out about the family names and social issues topics.
For the social topics issues, I have selected examples of resources for you about hikikomori, karoshi, and bullying. But you are not limited to these topics - any social issues in Japanese society are okay to research and present about!
About family names in Japan:
Check these links here, here, and here. The first two are in English, but the last one is in Japanese.
About social problems or issues:
Check these links about hikikomori here, here, and here. The first two have videos and are mostly in Japanese with some English, and the last one is longer - it is a Japanese news report with video in Japanese.
Check these links about karoshi here, here, and here. The first is a Japanese website about karoshi, the second is a short video in Japanese, and the third is an American report with a video that has interviews in Japanese.
Check these links about bullying here, here, and here. The first is a Japanese website about workplace harassment (パワーハラスメント [パワハラ]), the second is a short video interview in Japanese about bullying in schools, and the third is a Japanese news story from this week.
