| 研究実績の概要 |
This study focuses on (a) the effect of timely cloud-enabled feedback on EFL students’ performance, especially regarding common English as a Foreign language (EFL) student errors during oral presentations; (b) the viability of cloud-facilitated peer and self- evaluations as feedback for the instruction of EFL oral presentation skills; and (c) student perceptions of the extensive use of cloud computing and peer evaluation for the instruction of EFL oral presentation skills. Our research questions are:
1. Can the timeliness and specificity of feedback delivered via cloud computing improve EFL students’ oral performance during presentation tasks?
2. Is peer evaluation viable feedback in EFL oral presentation contexts?
3. How do students perceive the long-term regular use of cloud computing and peer evaluation for EFL oral presentations? Are they viable tools that can be used widely in MFL contexts?
Data pertaining to these questions will be compiled using cloud computing applications. They will be triangulated using results from diagnostic, process, and outcome assessments of students, videos of their presentations, interviews, and qualitative and quantitative assessments. 1. We will document the use of a cloud computing-enhanced feedback learning environment and its effect on EFL students’ oral presentation performances and prove or disprove its effectiveness. We will make every effort to widely disseminate results and ensure that the procedures undertaken for the research are easily replicated, generalizable, and have potential for broader use by the MFL teaching community.

理由
The procedures and resources developed as part of this inquiry are freely available, and this research is generating results that should significantly contribute to its scope of inquiry and its generalizability. This year, study results were detailed in 15 publications and 37 presentations, notably nine workshops that shared the teaching resources and procedures developed so far and explained them in detail.
Remote (online) participation in a group setting was not an environment anticipated by this Study. Pandemic health measures precluded several basic measures. Consequently, results are delayed in two respects: (1) Many, participants/students arrive with almost no ICT skills and are unable to participate until they learn such skills. (2) Participants cannot readily ask or receive immediate assistance about basic questions related to ICT and cloud computing. Their limited abilities and lack of immediate face-to-face recourse for their inquiries has delayed this study. Every assistance possible has been offered to remedy these problems. Nevertheless, several co-researchers have been unable or limited in their ability to participate as anticipated because of these circumstances. Three co-researchers were added to this study to compensate for this. Their contributions will abet the generalizability of this study by making materials and procedures available on multiple cloud platforms as opposed to one.
Overall, the study is progressing well. Prevailing circumstances due to the pandemic have nevertheless posed notable challenges that have delayed some results.

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
We will continue to develop measures that adapt to unanticipated circumstances and make this research widely available.
As initially stated this study still aims to document (1) the use of a cloud computing-enhanced feedback learning environment and its effect on EFL students’ oral presentation performances and prove or disprove its effectiveness, (2) the use of peer evaluation in the instruction of oral presentation skills in this EFL context and prove or disprove its effectiveness, and (3) how students perceive long-term regular use of peer evaluation and cloud computing and assess its viability as a tool for instruction and learning in this EFL context.
We are not yet decided whether we will request an extension for this research.
