| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this research is to evaluate the support given to Japanese university students who lack proficiency in reading long paragraphs, the aim being to improve their skills in vocabulary, grammar, context understanding and speed reading. Support exercise packages using 63 titles of graded-English readers over 5 levels were developed within a campus-based education web-assisted platform. Tryout and assessment were performed and survey results from the student users indicated a positive effect of MSUERT (Multiple Step Units for English Reading Training).
