韓日大学生間の同時双方向型交流授業の実践 － 互いの学習目標を達成する手段としての交流 －

Abstract

This paper reports a practical lesson that partially incorporates the COIL teaching method. This exchange class was designed according to each other's learning goals and syllabus. Specifically, I performed a task in Japanese that would compare Korea and Korean with Japan and Japanese. This allowed students from both schools to study the subjects they were taking. The question of how the class participants perceived this exchange was clarified by analyzing the post-class questionnaire and one-word impressions after the group activities. An analysis based on a five-point scale found that participants perceived the exchange class as “fun, not difficult, and informative.” In addition, the free description and one-word impressions were analyzed from the viewpoint of the utility of COIL. As a result, the participants noticed something new while enjoying “intercultural understanding and education.” And while I felt that it was difficult to use “language”, I felt that it was useful for improving their skills. “Language” has created sub-categories of “language use”, “language skills”, and “learning motivation”. From these sub-categories, it was found that Korean students enjoyed using Japanese and felt that it was beneficial for them, and that they realized that they lacked Japanese proficiency and increased their motivation for learning. On the other hand, Japanese students increased their motivation to learn Korean by witnessing Korean students making full use of Japanese. “Understanding / Education” has created sub-categories of “Intercultural Understanding,” “Human Education,” and “Exchange Classes.” From these sub-categories, it was found that the participants not only enjoyed the exchange class, but also understood that there was a culture different from their own.
