This paper reports the results of 'Communication IIA' writing courses taught by the present author. The courses tried to foster students' competence of paragraph writing in English by using peer feedback activities. In the first few weeks, students learned some basic rules concerning English paragraph writing, such as punctuation, topic sentences, supporting sentences, and concluding sentences. Then they learned how writing styles vary depending on topics. They learned one style each week and were assigned oneparagraph writing activity every week. In the next class, they engaged in the peer feedback activities in pairs. They were asked to rate the appropriateness of the target sentences and supporting sentences on a five-point scale. They were also asked to check the appropriateness of English usage, and were asked to make comments. The peer feedback activities lasted for eight weeks. The results of the courses were analyzed in terms of pre- and post- student writings administered at the second and 15th weeks, and students' responses to questionnaires. The results showed that most students' writing products improved, and their perceptions of the course were mostly positive.

The purpose of the present research is to examine how quickly and accurately Japanese English as a foreign language (EFL) learners can make appropriateness judgments for second language (L2) requests. Previous studies in interlanguage pragmatics are limited in that they did not distinguish between types of pragmatic inappropriateness and also in that they used only offline measurement through questionnaires. The present study therefore distinguishes two types of pragmatic inappropriateness in L2 utterances (under-polite and over-polite) and measures the reaction time of learners' appropriateness judgments. The participants were 45 Japanese university students; they were asked to judge whether the presented L2 requests were appropriate or not in the situation, as quickly and accurately as possible. Six appropriate requests, five under-polite requests, and five over-polite requests were judged. Further, the degree of inappropriateness in under- and over-polite requests was manipulated from slightly inappropriate to very inappropriate. As a result, it was found that speed and accuracy of appropriateness judgments depend on the degree of (in)appropriateness of requests. In particular, extremely over-polite utterances were difficult for L2 learners to process.

本研究では,大学英語教育において,ポッドキャストとウェブ型教材を,一斉指導,個別学習,およびICTを用いた協同学習に援用した。まず,ポッドキャスト教材及びウェブ型準拠教材を開発・配信した。次にこれらを利用して教室内指導と教室外個別学習を組み合わせた実践を行い,その結果を分析した。さらにデジタル・ストーリーテリングを通じてICTを協同学習に援用することの効果を探った。ポッドキャストを活用した一斉指導と個別学習の連携は,学習者の学習意欲を高め,英語学習の絶対量向上に貢献した。デジタル・ストーリーテリングは,扱った題材への理解を深めつつ,成果物を共有することによる学び合いを提供する点で効果があった。
