Reconstruction of Japanese Junior High School Students’s Perceptions of English Through the Integration of Grammar and Communication in the Meisei Summer School Project (MSSP)

Summary/Abstract: In this paper is investigated the way of teaching English into an integrative manner by focusing on both grammar and communication, especially oral communication, in one English class of Japanese students. Furthermore, it was investigated how such types of teaching influence Japanese students’ perception of English, their target language. One topic of controversy is whether or not Japanese junior high or high school teachers should teach English in the medium of English. For collecting data were employed research techniques such as participatory observation, video recording, and informal interview to collect related data from the one junior high school student, and also from the Meisei University students and international volunteers who managed the English classes
