Research Abstract |
To develop teaching methods and materials for teaching Business Japanese as a foreign language,. I interviewed Human Resources personnel in Japanese companies operating overseas in countries such as China, Vietnam, Thailand, as well as former students who studied in Japan to understand their needs for Japanese language skills required in business. Based on analyses of the interview results, I developed teaching materials-some using role plays and others using project-based activities. I piloted and improved the materials, and established accompanying teaching methods. I summarized the practices of educating oral expression, written expression, and reading comprehension. Finally, we tested the "Can-Do-Statement" measure as a way of evaluating Business Japanese education. I also established the Business Japanese Group as one of the thematic groups of the Society for Teaching Japanese as a Foreign Language to catalyze and promote research in this field.
