Employing Japanese popular culture materials in a Japanese language classroon : beyond textbook Japanese

    Abstract

    Numerous aspects of foreign language learning in a classroom setting are not equivalent to learning a first language in a natural environment. In a classroom situation, learners study the target language in a distinctly artificial manner by using prescribed textbooks that are designed to introduce grammar in a systematic way. Vocabulary coverage is also carefully selected in each textbook, and assignments are commonly set within the range of previously introduced grammar and vocabulary. Moreover, the input that learners receive from teachers is also controlled in a classroom setting as found in previous studies in the areas of foreigner and teacher talk.
