Flipgridを利用した日本語授業の実践報告—相互理解を重視した日本語聴解授業の活動—

Abstract

Listening skill development and improvement is an essential component of second language acquisition. This paper describes how Flipgrid was used in an auditory Japanese class for Korean students majoring in Japanese at a Korean university to improve listening and speaking skills. Educational institutions have been conducting online classes as a result of COVID-19, and there have been numerous reports on the use of ICT and applications as teaching methods. Students have shown no resistance to learning using online functions as online learning has become more active, and they are actively participating in classes using ICT and submitting assignments through the LMS. This was an important opportunity to develop human resources that will be used in the future society, i.e., 21st century skills. In this section, we consider the class system based on the learning pyramid of learning retention and create a Flipgrid-introducing class. We believe that by eliciting learners' abilities, we can encourage efficient acquisition not only through listening comprehension lessons, but also through approaches from various perspectives. Furthermore, by utilizing blended learning, we linked the activity of asking questions and providing impromptu answers to the other person. A post-lesson survey is administered to gauge learners' satisfaction with their education.
