Research Abstract |
It has been about thirty years since China started the open-door policy, when the number of students coming to study in Japan started to increase. Along with the Japanese Government's policy of accepting 100,000 foreign students, students from China have become the largest group of the foreign students' body. On the other hand, Japanese students have become the second largest group among foreign students in China, as Japan and China have developed closer cooperative ties.

e day-by-day variation of the process of intercultural adjustment. Third, participatory approach enhanced the effectiveness of this research. All members of the research team were involved in education and counseling for foreign students. Furthermore, students who became the target of the research also actively participated in the research by recommending improvements for policies on foreign students and intercultural programs. The credibility of the survey result was strengthened, while trustful relations had been built between those who researched and those who were researched. There are three points in the major accomplishment of the research. First, it could accumulate huge quantities of questionnaire result, students' diaries, interview notes, and minutes of workshops. Second, it made a comparison of the first generation and the second generation of students from China and Japan, thereby revealed problems and adjustment strategies of respective generations. Third, the effectiveness of a new approach for studying abroad, double-degree program, was tested. The accomplishment of this research is expected to be widely utilized in research on foreign students in the future. Less
