| Research Abstract |
Our project was about finding out if it is possible to create a self-study-course on the basis of Moodle for Japanese students on a beginner level. Through questionings and observations we could find out, that students are still hesitating taking such a self-study-course. One reason for this is students still feel not comfortable in a) using a computer for studying and b) studying independent and self-determined. Another emphasis of our research was in finding out which feedback is appropriated for different exercises. Against our assumption there is not always a need for elaborated feedback. Depending on the kind of exercise sometimes an elaborated feedback is disturbing the flow of the learning process. Furthermore we examined how to facilitate the oral expression of the students on the basis of Moodle.
