| 研究実績の概要 |
To rectify this gap in empirically grounded materials and methods for the teaching of diplomatic writing, researchers Nishide, Tatsuki and Hollenback collected data from two Model United Nations conferences. The first was a the Japan University English Model United Nations conference for Japanese and non-Japanese University students synchronously online for three days. We also collected resolutions data from non Japanese non-native speakers and native speakers of English at the National Model United Nations Washington DC conference. We continue to use a genre approach to illustrate any deficits in (recurrent grammar and phraseological patterns, and function and purpose of the content) student generated Model United Nations resolutions and United Nation Resolutions.

3: やや遅れている
理由
We are slightly delayed with the COVID-19 pandemic to collect data as JUEMUN 2020 was held online and the fall National Model United Nations (NMUN) Czech Republic conference was cancelled due to the pandemic. One research member was able to to go the NMUN DC conference in Washington D.C. that had the three UN committees we were researching. The JUEMUN conference only had one committee. The NMUN New York conference was held in April 2022 instead of March 2020. Opportunities to give presentations were also limited due to the pandemic.

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
In our fourth year of the project we (Nishide, Tatsuki & Hollenback) will complete our data analysis using both quantitative and qualitative analysis based on systemic functional grammar, a corpus linguistics approach supported by Sketch Engine, Antconc 2.0 software, Genre and critical discourse analysis to address how diplomatic writing features presented, justified and how actions are recommended in United Nations General Assembly, Security Council, and Economic and Social Council resolutions though examining recurrent grammar and phraseological patterns, and function and purpose of the content. We will finish developing, piloting and evaluating diplomatic writing training materials to write resolutions. The piloting will be done at the National Model United Nations conference. In addition, we plan to present our findings at conferences.

| 次年度使用額が生じた理由 |
The funding will be used for development of materials and to attend Model United Nations conferences and and training sessions in Japan (3, Germany (1), and the United States (2) to evaluate the effect of diplomatic writing training materials developed to write resolutions for Security Council, Economic and Social Council and the General Assembly. We will also share our findings at conferences in Japan and internationally.
