| Outline of Research at the Start |
By focusing on the genre of demonstrative artist-talk, the project aims to develop valid pedagogical approaches to prepare Japanese ceramic artists to give presentations in English at conferences and related events of the international discourse community of ceramic arts education and practice.
|
| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The research specifically aimed to identify salient linguistic features and communicative functions found in the demonstrative artist-talk speech genre. The primary goal was to support pedagogical approaches to prepare Japanese artists to use English when participating in the international discourse community of ceramic arts. The research findings, however, are relevant to a wide range of English for specific purposes (ESP) contexts that involve the transfer technical and procedural knowledge. Although the global pandemic prohibited some aspects of the original research design and limited planned dissemination, the project successfully identified key characteristics of genre and register of artist talks as well as procedural monologues in general.
|
| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
The project has (1)contributed to understanding of the genre of demonstrative artist-talks to be used in developing ESP teaching materials in Japan and (2)identified salient linguistic features and discourse functions of procedural monologues in hands-on contexts of how-to instruction giving.
