Research Abstract |
The purpose of this project is to develop an effective way to instruct Japanese politeness both within and outside Japan. First, we enriched the content of teaching materials so as to increase the understanding of Japanese learners of a wide variety of backgrounds. Next, we wrote out a teacher's manual which includes explanations for Japanese society and distinguishing characteristics of Japanese politeness so that Japanese teachers can use the teaching materials effectively. Finally, we made a complete translation of the teaching materials and the teacher's manual into English, Chinese and Korean. The textbook and the teacher's manual have been published and sent to some universities both within and outside Japan. Furthermore, we gave a presentation at a conference in University of London, University of Incheon, and Shanghai International Studies University.
