遠隔日本語交流会参加者の気づきと学び―対面での交流会との比較結果から―

Abstract

The author has been invited Japanese language learners other than Korean native speakers living in Busan at her university to attend her classes, and held visitor sessions to talk with Korean native speakers in Japanese. However, it has become impossible to conduct visitor sessions because the university curriculums were changed. Therefore, the author has been conducting the online meetings instead that connect Sweden, China, Korea, and Japan (Japan joined in 2014) since 2012. Matsuura(2012) shows the results of the reflection sheets of visitor sessions which states the students’ comment in the reflection sheets can be classified such as “eliminating stereotypes”, “motivation for learning Japanese” and “interests to new cultures”. In this thesis, the students’ comments on reflection sheets after online meetings and comments from Matsuura(2012) were compared. As a result, similarities such as “eliminating stereotypes” and “motivation for learning Japanese” were observed, regardless of whether the sessions were face to face or online. However, as the collaborative research was being conducted with universities in Sweden, China, and Japan, problems such as adjusting schedule and matching the number of participants from each country were occurred.
