抄録

It is generally believed that motivation plays a significant role in foreign language learning; students who feel motivated to learn a foreign language are more likely to become successful learners. In Japan, where foreign language education has been primarily teacher-centered for years, students rarely get the opportunity to practice speaking or listening in class, and usually fare poorly at those skills. To provide an opportunity to increase motivation toward foreign languages, a Greek postgraduate student created teaching materials in PowerPoint and HTML to introduce the Greek language to a class of undergraduate students at Kyoto University. The students were asked to introduce themselves and then record their self-introductions using iPod nano(R) mobile digital devices distributed to them. This paper reports on the class content as well as the results of the questionnaire conducted at the end of the class.
