Research Abstract |
As an activity to enhance the reading comprehension for Japanese learners, the effects of explanation through making and presenting a resume in a poster with partner(s) were investigated. The results from the explanation activity showed an improvement on reading comprehension, but the effect was different among the learners. Furthermore, the explanation activity with feedbacks about the text structure and its re-making showed more improvement in comprehension. For enhancing reading comprehension, it is necessary to have an explanation activity combining with explicit feedback.
