| Outline of Research at the Start |
This study compares the effectiveness of two flashcard formats for learning English words, Japanese-English paired-associates (e.g. 学生-student) and sentence gap-fillings (e.g. He is a third-year college s____.), by using eye-tracking technology and vocabulary tests to measure lexical development.
|
| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
During this fiscal year, I continued with data collection and recruited more participants to work on the project. I also recruited research assistants and provided them with training sessions on how to preprocess the collected data. The research assistants finished some practice and were able to help with data preprocessing.

| Current Status of Research Progress |
Current Status of Research Progress
3: Progress in research has been slightly delayed.
Reason
The delay was a consequence of Covid-19 in the previous fiscal years.
|
| Strategy for Future Research Activity |
I will continue to work on data collection and recruit more participants for the project. I will also start exploring academic literature on statistical data analysis and consider suitable methods for analyzing the project data.
