FY2019 Results of Accreditation
Results of Accreditations Performed by the Japan University Accreditation Association April 10, 2020 Introduction In 2002, the Certified Evaluation and Accreditation System was introduced in Japan (enforced in 2004), obligating all higher education institutions (universities, junior colleges and technical colleges) to undergo an evaluation once every 7 years, and all professional graduate schools to undergo an evaluation once every 5 years as well. In each case, the evaluating agency certified by the Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) conducts the evaluation process, comprehensively assessing the level of education, and other areas. Since its establishment in 1947, the Japan University Accreditation Association (JUAA) has played a significant role in assuring the quality of higher education. On August 31, 2004, the JUAA was authorized by the Minister of MEXT as the first Certified Evaluation and Accreditation Agency for universities. Authorization for its Certified Evaluation and Accreditation later expanded to several other fields. The JUAA currently performs Certified Evaluation and Accreditation in 11 fields (university, junior college, law school, professional graduate business school, professional graduate public policy school, professional graduate school of public health, professional graduate school of intellectual property studies, professional graduate school of global communications, professional graduate school of digital contents, professional graduate school of global legal studies, and professional graduate school of public relations) and the accreditation for school of veterinary medicine. JUAA has just finalized the results of accreditations for FY 2019 as follows. FY 2019 University Accreditation (Certified Evaluation and Accreditation for University) Results On accepting applications for University Accreditation from 30 universities, the JUAA has undertaken the evaluative process. -

Communicative Language Teaching in Korean Public Schools: an Informal Assessment
The English Connection March 2001 Volume 5 / Issue 2 A bimonthly publication of Korea Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages March 2001, Vol. 5, No. 2 Communicative Language Teaching in Korean Public Schools: An Informal Assessment by Dr. Samuel McGrath Introduction his article focuses on the current status of communicative language teaching in the public schools in T Korea. In order to promote communicative competence in the public schools, in 1992, the Ministry of Education mandated that English teachers use a communicative approach in class. They envisioned communi- cative language teaching (CLT) replacing the traditional audio-lingual method in middle school English teaching and the dominant grammar-translation method of high school teaching. The new approach was supposed to start in the schools in 1995. Six years have passed since the policy was adopted. However, no formal assessment by the government seems to have been done on the success or otherwise of the program. continued on page 6 Empowering Students with Learning Strategies . 9 Douglas Margolis Reading for Fluency . 11 Joshua A.

Summary International Symposium The Digital Challenge in Germany and Japan in Comparison: Opportunities, Risks, and Digital Cooperation Hamburg 18 – 19 June 2019 by Opeoluwa Joseph Oguntoye and Jan Kronschnabel (University of Osnabrueck) Is digitalization a blessing or a curse? This question has in recent times taken a front role in the hall of intellectual discussion. This is particularly so given its inevitable impact in every sphere of human interaction. From the agricultural, health and industrial sector, to the platform economy, legal and moral ethics of technological changes, several scholars have begun investigating the impact of digitalization in the postmodern society. The interdisciplinary symposium organised by the Japanese Research Centre, the University of Osnabrück and the German-Japanese Society for Social Sciences from 18 to 19 June 2019 with the support of the Japanese Consulate General in Hamburg and the participation of the Japanese Consul General Kato at the University of Hamburg and the GIGA Hamburg highlighted the future challenges, including the problem of an ageing society, the future of work, ethical and moral questions on digitalization, democracy and identity politics, but also possibilities such as remote work, smart city technology, efficient use of resources and effective health care. However, digitalization, while providing answers to many of the problems we are currently facing, raises questions that need to be answered. With such pressing issues on the agenda, German and Japanese experts from different disciplines critically analyzed the prospects but also the problems of digitalization, suggesting ways by which we could tackle these problems. The symposium started with Professor Franz Waldenberger's (DIJ Tokyo) presentation on “Society 5.0 - Japan’s visions and ambitions for the digital age” where he described 1 and critically assessed the smart Japan initiative highlighting the strength, weaknesses, and challenges of achieving such highly ambitious goals. -
Drawing on the Design Perspective Towards an Affirmation of English As a Lingua Franca
Englishes in Practice 2016; 3(2): 29-54 DOI: 101515/eip-2016-0002 Glenn Toh Academic Writing in a Japanese Situation: Drawing on the Design Perspective towards an Affirmation of English as a Lingua Franca Abstract The contents of this article concern ELF 500, a course in graduate school academic writing that adopts an ELF-aware approach. In my discussion, I will first review the literature on language, ideology and power as it relates to Japanese cultural politics. Following this, I will draw on the notions of critique and design as described in Lillis (2003) as critical transformative strategies to encourage student academic writers to become more conscious of: (1) the constructed and situated nature of knowledge and meaning making as viewed by scholars in the area of academic literacies; (2) the importance of their own agency towards realizing their potential as academic thinkers and writers; and (3) the importance of understanding the fluid, dynamic and performative nature of English in its role as a lingua franca as a means towards constructing meanings that are valuable and unique to their own emergent ontologies as Japanese users of ELF. My discussion is, throughout, very much motivated by a professional concern that the teaching of academic writing should be carried out within an overall pedagogical framework that recognizes the importance of the humanizing and transformative role of language education.
