Description

The present program of kokugo is so narrowly centered on the instruction of skill in reading that it prevents the learners from developing their historical and social perspective. The general decline of literacy among young people can be to a great degree attributed to such a skill-oriented way of teaching. Thus reading a literary text in class must be distinguished from learning it; the goal of kokugo teaching is not how to interpret and appreciate the text but how to acquire reading skill by means of literature. In short, there is no room for literature itself in our schools.
