Abstract

This study investigated the feeling of satisfaction of foreign students in using computer-based drill in their Japanese language class. A 90-minute, once-a-week class using a computer-based drill (CAI Class) was conducted for 16 weeks for students who studied Japanese at Kyushu University International Student Center. After the CAI Classes, a survey was conducted using a 46 item questionnaire composed of 42 items on factors affecting students' satisfaction and 4 items on students' feeling of satisfaction. The results showed that teacher (Class) and laziness in using the CAI materials were significant factors affecting the strong relationship between the students' feeling of satisfaction with CAI Class. The study clearly showed the following points: (1)Teacher plays very important role in CAI Class in giving some kind of satisfaction to students. (2)For Japanese language study, students prefer CAI materials that are easy to use than beautiful and novel.
