초록
The increase in the number for foreigners in Japan during the 1990s and 2000s created new demands for education as the number of foreign children attending Japanese schools increased. The lack of Japanese language input at home thus makes it more difficult for foreign children to acquire literacy in Japanese at the same rate as Japanese children, which in turn creates new challenges for teachers, particularly teachers of Japanese language (kokugo). In this paper, I investigated various measures taken by teachers, schools, and educational authorities in Japan to meet the complex needs of foreign children in the schools system. The paper focused particularly on the development of the JSL curriculum to help foreign children develop language skills needed in important school subjects. I then discussed the relevancy of the situation in Japan for Korea where the issue of foreign children in Korean schools has been largely ignored as attention has been focused on “multicultural families” in which one parent is a native-born Korean.
