説明

This case study examines the dynamics of an English Foreign Language (EFL) and English as a Second Language (ESL) / English for Academic Purposes (EAP) student exchange program involving participants from diverse backgrounds. Through dialog analysis, key findings highlight the influence on perceptions, language learning through media consumption, and the nuanced challenges faced by students from the Philippines, Papua New Guinea and Japan. Participants express their aspirations, family dynamics, and the transformative impact of studying in Australia (ESL / EAP students). The dialog underscores the significance of cultural understanding, the academic rigour of exchange programs, and the unexpected support participants receive. Implications for future programs include targeted language support, comprehensive cultural training, and tailored acculturation assistance. Ultimately, the study emphasizes the profound impact of language exchange in fostering academic growth, personal development, and cross-cultural awareness within the global education landscape, particularly for Japanese students understanding Japan’s position within the greater Asia-Pacific community of nations.
