| Research Abstract |
This research investigates the effectiveness of specially constructed learning material and instructional designs employed in an EFL university course designed for students who are about to commence with a study abroad program or who are considering studying abroad in the future. Results of the questionnaires, speaking tests, and quasi-interviews administered to the students taking the course indicate that 1) memorization of model dialogs can be facilitated through instructional intervention, 2) different attributes of learning material may have differential learning effects, and 3) the imminence of the study abroad experience can be a determining factor in successfully motivating students to deal with the memorization task and other language tasks.
