| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study is to develop programs to prepare the teacher candidates who will work in kindergartens/daycare centers with increasing cultural diversity. A set of the data was collected by interviewing professors and observing classes of their teacher education programs in the U.S. The second set was collected in Japan by interviewing young and veteran teachers and administrators regarding how they view and work with children with diverse cultural backgrounds, especially the Japanese Language Learners (JLL). The third was collected from special programs for young JLLs before entering the elementary schools. The findings suggested that the current and future teachers need to develop culturally responsive attitudes toward diversity. This requires abilities to understand children from families with diverse cultural backgrounds, and knowledge of bilingual development in order to provide equal learning opportunities for all learners.
