研究開始時の研究の概要 |
This study will examine the development of extended discourse skills in Japanese learners of English by focusing on narratives gathered through an English language program at a Japanese university. Different types of written and spoken narratives (e.g., personal, fictional) will be collected, analyzed, and organized into a L2 narrative corpus.

研究実績の概要 |
The purpose of this study is to examine the development of extended discourse skills in Japanese learners of English by focusing on narratives gathered through an English language program at a Japanese university. Regarding foreign language learners of English, basic narrative skills are important for both speaking and writing. A variety of both written and spoken narratives will be collected. Narratives will be analyzed in terms of (1) narrative organization (e.g., cohesion, referential structure), and (2) evaluative language (e.g., frames of mind, hedges). Both cross-sectional (by year and proficiency level) and longitudinal analyses will be conducted. In addition, comparisons between different types of narratives will be conducted. Lastly, the narratives will be organized into a L2 learner corpus which will contribute to second language research and pedagogy.
During FY2023, the main focus of the project was data collection and analysis. Spoken and written narratives of various types (i.e., elicited narratives, personal narratives, fictional narratives, collaborative narratives) were collected from approximately 300 university students. Transcription and data analysis have been ongoing, with research results being presented in the form of four conference presentations and one publication.

2: おおむね順調に進展している
理由
The research schedule included: (1) collection of spoken narratives by Japanese learners of English (i.e., different proficiency levels, different grades); (2) collection of written narratives by Japanese learners of English (i.e., different proficiency levels, different grades); (3) transcription of audio-recorded spoken narratives (e.g., elicited narratives); and (4) transcription of handwritten (written) narratives (e.g., personal narratives, elicited narratives, fictional narratives, collaborative personal narratives). Data coding and analysis are ongoing.
The data collection is going according to schedule and is progressing smoothly. In FY2023, we were able to present our research findings in four conference presentations, namely at the International Symposium on Bilingualism 2023 (ISB14) in June 2023 , International Pragmatics Conference (IPRA2023) in July 2023, and Asia TEFL 2023 (2 presentations) in August 2023, as well as in one publication.

今後の研究の推進方策 |
In FY2024, we hope to continue with our ongoing collection of spoken and written narratives by Japanese learners of English as well as data transcription. Coding and analysis (i.e., error analysis, type/token analysis, corpus analysis) of the data will also continue (e.g., by proficiency level, by grade).
This upcoming year, we are planning to present our research findings at several conferences, including the 25th Annual International Conference of the Japanese Society of Language Sciences (JSLS2024) in July 2024 and the 21st Association of Applied Linguistics World Congress 2024 (AILA2024) in Kuala Lumpur in August 2024.
