| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aims to develop a rubric for integrated summary writing tasks in English, which meets needs from English language teachers in Japanese’s universities. As a first step, we compared a holistic rubric and an analytic rubric developed for the tasks outside of Japan. Results showed both rubrics were valid and reliable for evaluation of task performance only when the overall scores of each rubric were taken into consideration. Therefore, descriptors of the rubrics need refinements so that the rubrics would be more appropriate to the Japanese contexts. In teaching English summary writing tasks, the rubric developed by the researchers was shown to learners explicitly as a task goal of revision in order to examine the effectiveness of the rubric. Consequently, those who referred to the rubric showed significantly higher self-evaluation scores of their summaries than those who referred to model summaries. Hence, the rubric seems to be an effective tool to teach summary writing tasks.
