| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research aimed to develop teaching materials and an appropriate learning model that can help foster Japanese learners' critical thinking skills, which are widely believed to be in a poor condition. We developed CT teaching materials based on a speech made by Steve Jobs as the 2005 Stanford University commencement address. We set up a series of questions and tasks for critical thinking. As for a learning model for CT skills, we found the LTD (learning through discussion) method very promising and organized lessons in such a way that learners can deepen their understanding and widen their views of the world through exchanges of their ideas and opinions with their peers.
