Carefully selected stories can motivate and engage students in the language classroom.Additionally, in the context of Japan where students entering university are unfamiliar with language learning strategies, the integration of strategy instruction within a course could lead to huge learning advancement for students (Tanahashi, 2009). Comprising six story-based units of learning, the proposed course is designed to develop the English Communication skills of upper beginner / lower intermediate level university students. Students will engage in activities geared towards developing their understanding of basic story elements, developing their ability to tell a fictional narrative and a personal narrative, developing language skills, developing their ability to participate in discussion using different discussion skills, and enhancing their interest in extensive reading. Moreover, students will be introduced to six different language learning strategies with the aim of enabling them to develop learner autonomy, integrating self-regulation into their language learning process.
