| Abstract | (in Japanese) | (See Japanese page) |
| (in English) | Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports and Technology, in conjunction with Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and Prime Minister’s Office has set up initiatives for “Global Human Resource Development.”. In recent years, cultivating communicative competence in English has become the focus of English language education in Japan but learners lack vocabulary and training for applying grammatical knowledge into practical use in real time. One such area in which we need additional attention is listening comprehension, especially in terms of elements in a sentence that do not receive phonetic salience. Most tests and practices on listening comprehension that Japanese learners of English are exposed to are multiple choice drills with audio presentations and choosing the right word, expressions, pictures and so on. This is not as simple as it may sound and offers good listening comprehension tasks for the learners but it does not require them to apply their linguistic knowledge in real time to figure out what other elements in the sentence might be. | |
