| 研究開始時の研究の概要 |
This KAKENHI project seeks to build on the PI’s doctoral work analyzing the rhetorical techniques used by persuasive public speakers. The project will use findings from an analysis of influential international speeches to create authentic and challenging teaching materials on the use of rhetorical techniques in public speaking. These materials will be housed on an online website to provide much-needed pedagogical support for university language instructors of high-level English-speaking students.

| 研究実績の概要 |
Stage 2 of the research project was conducted this past year. This involved analyzing the prominence of rhetoric in Japanese university English oral communication courses. This qualitative study examined if rhetoric-based instruction is addressed in a sample of English language oral communication textbooks, before documenting the language learning experiences of ten Japanese university students. An amalgamation of the data reveals there is a current dearth of explicit instruction related to rhetoric. Although some micro-rhetorical techniques were featured in many of the textbooks examined in this study, they were rarely taught in an explicit manner and were frequently introduced simply as a means of improving the clarity and structure of the speech or presentation being made. From a macro perspective, the term rhetoric, its history, and its significance were not a core focus of any of the books analyzed. The student participants in Phase 2 were also largely unaware of the concept of rhetoric, although several demonstrated latent knowledge of rhetorical techniques, largely due to previous instruction from the researcher. The findings from this study were published in an international academic journal. The findings and related pedagogical implications were disseminated at four major international conferences and one domestic conference.

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
Three further studies have been completed in this project and will be published this coming year. One serves as a follow-up to the original study in this project and analyzes the rhetorical techniques used by Japanese gender activists. The second forthcoming publication depicts possible pedagogical approaches for teachers teaching rhetoric. The third study analyzes the rhetoric used by ChatGPT and discusses the implications.
