| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study mainly examines the content of the judging sheets used in schools and colleges in Japan to determine whether they are appropriate for correctly evaluating debates. Results find that the current sheets in general lack evaluation points such as (1) accuracy in English usage, especially in grammar, (2) whether the English speech is listener-friendly, and (3) whether the teams’ overall argument structure is good.
To achieve more accurate evaluation in classes, this study proposes that the evaluation items should be revised for further advancement, so that English debating is used as a teaching method, and for motivating students to learn English as a second language.
