| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
The research progressed well, and we had received cooperation from various elementary and secondary school institutions. The final year of the project saw us provide teacher training in Aomori, Akita and Fukushima. The workshops were for two days, with the second day consisting of model teaching sessions by the participants. At all workshops, teachers were able to learn effective teaching techniques applicable to the MEXT guidelines emphasizing communicative language teaching. Feedback was positive with many participants indicating they were motivated to change their teaching.Questionnaire data was collected and,helped us to understand the impact the workshops are having on the teachers own self perception of themselves and the potential of their impact in the classroom.
