학습자 판단에 따른 일본어 표현 문형의 난이도‒학습 전･후의 변화를 중심으로‒

Abstract

In this paper, we examined the level of difficulty of learners (upper and lower level) regarding the changes before and after learning Japanese expression sentence patterns (N1･N2). The main results are as follows. (1) The difficulty level of the learners before and after learning about the expression sentence patterns (N1･N2: 269) is lowering (the upper part of the learner is 10% lower than the lower part), indicating that the instruction on the expression pattern results positive from learning. (2) In the N1･N2 expression sentence, the N2 expression sentence pattern shows that the difference of difficulty level of the learners (upper and lower level) before and after learning is almost the same, but the difficulty level of the learners (upper and lower level) has decreased significantly, indicating that the learning effect is considerable. (3) The ranking of the difference in difficulty level between learners (upper and lower level) before and after learning is completely irrelevant. (4) It can be seen that the degree of difficulty before and after learning is strongly correlated regardless of the learners (upper and lower level). (5) 38 (38.4%) of N2 expression sentences pattern appear in the N1 expression sentence pattern with high difficulty (which are determined to be ranked 99th in the ranking) in the total difficulty level of both before and after learning of all learners (upper and lower level). In the above results, an important implication for guidance is that the ranks of learners’ (upper and lower level) differences in difficulty before and after learning are different. Therefore, it is necessary to change the teaching method according to the level of learners.
