| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We recorded eye movement while participants examined spontaneous Kanji air writing, correct rates. Participants were 30 learners of Japanese as a second language, 15 Chinese, 10 Korean, and 19 Japanese. Individual differences were rage in eye movements. Correct rates of intermediate-beginning learners with air writing were higher than learners without air writing in the 6-month period. These results suggested importance of hand writing in Kanji learning.
