Description
This study aims to develop an educational curriculum and a textbook to improve international students’ information literacy to the level required for their university life in relation to Japanese language learning. 102 undergraduate international students participated in a questionnaire survey regarding their IT usage and IT skills. The results of the survey are as follows:1)most students are familiar with computers, 2)information−gathering skills, which are frequently required at the university, are easily mastered by international students, and 3)students in the first years of university lack the skills necessary for inputting the Japanese language and creating a word processing document, among the most necessary skills for university life. Furthermore, all international undergraduate students have not acquired sufficient knowledge of internet security. These skills are closely related to Japanese language proficiency. Therefore, it is necessary to support students through Japanese language education.
