| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study investigated how the reading literacy defined in the PISA criteria is fostered in secondary English language education in Japan. Analyses of the MEXT-approved high school textbooks (Communication English I and II) revealed that a large percentage of reading questions and tasks required understanding at the lowest cognitive level in Bloom’s revised taxonomy (Anderson and Krathwohl, 2001) and only a few tasks required higher levels such as integrating and evaluating. On the other hand, the textbooks used abroad were equipped with longer passages and with activities that gradually increased in difficulty of cognitive demand. The observations of CLIL, CBI, and IB overseas classes indicated that the textbooks served as a resource for learning and encouraged students to engage in intellectually stimulating tasks. The research outcomes suggest that textbooks in Japan include longer, more thought-provoking passages; also,it would be prudent to incorporate step-by-step scaffolding.
