Abstract

A 6-week summer intensive Japanese Program, KIT-IJST, had offered a class in which learners of Japanese were paired with Japanese students and conducted hands-on production tasks to learn basic Japanese for science and technology. However, due to the shift from the quarter system to semesters, the pair project had to be canceled. Thus, the authors developed a new project featuring problem-based-learning (PBL), in which participants find a "problem" through interviews with Japanese students and solve it. Through PBL, the participants were able to interact with Japanese students using the expressions introduced in this class and grow acquainted with what life in Japan is like as well as the difficulties people are facing.
