| Research Abstract |
At the symposium held in the 14th year of Heisei, Sano and Kanamori reported on some recent developments in English education and teacher training in Korea and pointed out that there are much for us to learn therefrom. In Korea the emphasis is put on fostering teachers' language ability while in Europe it is on developing the ability of intercultural communication. Improvements in English education in Korea were made under the president's strong leadership, while in Europe they derived from long cooperation of many European countries. Ideas published in the Common European Framework for Reference of Languages (2001) were at the basis of the participants' reports from Europe. A close analysis of this non-language specific text is indispensable as an important part of our investigation. In the same year we visited some schools in Italy to know how the method "moduli didattici" is practiced and what problems it involves. It has not been applied to foreign language education, but it could

be effective for us to deal with the problem of the lack of English teachers at the elementary school level. Unfortunately schools we visited did not adopt it. Extensive studies of its effectiveness where it is practiced are yet to be done. We also visited and investigated foreign language classes in two private elementary School and a public. NHK's program 'Eigorian' was also analyzed. The common problem involved in them is that methods are devised upon the structuralistic view of the language with a veneer of communication, and much is desired for foreign language education in Japan to be really communicative, though in Europe things are not completely different from those in Japan. The problem of cross-curriculum remains unsolved. This is due, in addition to some of its inherent technical difficulties, to the fact that what communication really is is not well understood in Japan, and to still firmly-rooted influence of American structuralism. These problems must be solved before effective teacher training and teaching methods are developed. Less
