Research Abstract

In order to improve the quality of Hiroshima University's new Institute for Foreign Language Research and Education, J.L.and J.Y.went on a two-week fact-finding mission to the University of Toronto and Michigan State University in September 1997. The researchers conducted many hours of interviews with faculfy members, videotaped lessons, talked to graduate students and ESL students, and tried to ascertain what aspects of those programs should be adopted by Hiroshima University.
P.S.& M.Y.visited University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) and the University of Hawaii (UH) in order to accomplish several goals. In general, to establish a successful language education and research center at Hiroshima University, the researchers were interested in learning about how UCLA and UH provided foreign language training on their campuses. Specifically, six areas were studies : (1) Program management, (2) Evaluation and testing, (3) Research, development, and the curriculum, (4) personnel, (5) Facility operation, and(6) Finances.
