| 研究実績の概要 |
During the first year of the project, the researchers continued to develop the theoretical foundation of the study. The researchers refined the research instruments that would be used to collect data. The instruments were then piloted by the principal investigator and co-investigators with a group of 154 participants. The data gathered from this pilot study were used to revise the instruments and data collection methods. The collected data, in the form of a linguistic corpus, were analyzed using natural language processing and corpus analysis tools. Additionally, participants were interviewed to gather qualitative data. Participant experiences were collated and published in an internal publication.

2: おおむね順調に進展している
理由
Research proceeded more smoothly than anticipated. Both the development of the instruments and pilot study were conducted as planned. The researchers were able to recruit more participants than initially planned for the pilot phase, leading to the creation of a robust corpus of learner language for analysis. Though minor changes were necessary, the research instruments performed their task adequately.

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
Analysis of the data from the pilot study will continue, with the aim to publish the results in a peer reviewed journal. The results will be presented at CALICO 2022 in the U.S.A and the JALT National Conferences. Additional activity facilitators will recruited to enable the main phase of data collection to expand in scope. The researchers will provide training and orientation for new facilitators on the core guiding principles of the maker education approach. Once facilitators are trained, the main data collection phase of the project will begin in the second half of 2022. It is estimated that over 300 participants will take part in this phase of the study. Once data is collected, analysis and subsequent work on publishing and disseminating the results will begin.

| 次年度使用額が生じた理由 |
Due to the coronavirus pandemic, it was not possible to travel to the planned conferences and events during the first year of the project. In addition, the university campus was only partially open, meaning that participants and facilitators that would have otherwise been able to participate were not able to do so. Accordingly, some budget was rolled over to the 2nd year of the project.
