| Research Abstract |
We interviewed classroom-teachers, teachers in charge of Japanese teaching and managers in junior high schools to inquier the problems and special support measures for foreign students in 3 areas with a large population of foreign residents in Japan. We found that teachers concerned endeavored to adjust foreign students to the japanese school climate, respecting their mother languages and cultures as well as to promote japanese students in understanding of multiculture. Subsequently, we surveyed 167 foreign students of junior high schools in order to understand their adjustment feeling toward school environment, coping behaviors in needs and intercultural factors effecting on their adjustment through questionnaire method in above areas. The questionnaire results revealed that their level of adjustment feeling was regulated significantly by the ages they arrived and periods they were staying in Japan and their experiences in japanese schools. Their higher group in adjustment level seemed to have lived in japanese society longer and touched japanese school culture more than their lower group. They tended to accommodate themselves school rules and perform active coping in needs of school situations. Conversely, their lower group tended to have not accepted different school systems and rules from their home schools. They were subject to lonliness or discrimination and apt to reduce motivation and worsen their academic achievment. Then, we recommend arranging school-counselors and other staffs proficient in mother languages for them.
