| Current Status of Research Progress |
Current Status of Research Progress
2: Research has progressed on the whole more than it was originally planned.
Reason
I moved to Osaka Jogakuin College from Hiroshima University after my first year of KAKENHI. This changed my research schedule/timeline, the conferences I can attend, the amount of time I have to spend writing, and the feasibility of hosting a "team teaching symposium" as originally planned. Still, I am making progress, have all my data, and am consistently presenting at conferences and writing small manuscripts for publication.

| Strategy for Future Research Activity |
In 2019-20, my plans are:
1. Seven conferences: JALT, KOTESOL, ThaiTESOL, CamTESOL, TESOL, AAAL, and MAXQDA [PRESENTATION]
2. Validation of a Japanese Behavioral and Instructional Management Scale (BIMS) [w/Gentry, R.][PUBLICATION]
3. Qualitative survey responses regarding roles in team teaching [w/Walter, B.R] [PUBLICATION]
4. Exploring construct validity of the short-form version of the SSEC [w/Kabir, R.S.][PUBLICATION]
5. Create website [aaronsponseller.com] with a section dedicated to the research findings produced with kakenhi funding. PDFs of manuscripts, posters, and handouts will be available. This website will be promoted by sending letters to approximately 1000 schools around Japan as well as emails to national JET Program leaders, CLAIR, and MEXT. [PUBLIC DISSEMINATION]

| Causes of Carryover |
Two reasons: 1. I moved to a new job and that slowed down my research and the money spent for the last year. 2. I collected adequate data during my first year of data collection and this resulted in less expense incurred in year 2.
