Abstract (English)

To improve newly appointed Japanese Language teachers’ Instructional support, the author

developed lesson plan creation support tools for the teachers who belong to the Japanese

language institute the author works for.

Prior to the development, as a preliminary survey to identify the problems of teaching

instruction, the author interviewed newly appointed teachers and lead instructors. To get

more detailed information, the author analyzed previously submitted lesson plans and

feedback for each lesson plan. Based on the information obtained from the analysis results,

the author has developed the following: ÿlesson plan sheets, ÿchecklists to check each lesson
plan, examples of lesson plan sheets (ÿa lesson plan sheet which includes a sample of the old
versions of the lesson plan and ÿthe new lesson plan sheet. ÿa description of the examples of
the lesson plan sheets and the checklists, ÿcomparisons of the old versions of the lesson plan
and the new version of the lesson plan sheets, ÿexamples of the completed checklist, ÿa
description of each of the examples of completed checklists.

After the tools were developed, a review was conducted for two instructional designers and
two subject matter experts. Based on the results, necessary revisions and also, an instruction
manual were made. As the next phase, formative assessment about usability of all of the newly
revised lesson plan support tools was carried out. And then, the author used the checklist from
the perspective of a lead instructor. Furthermore, in reference to the results, the lesson plan
support tools were revised again.

After expert review of all the revised tools, they were used as a trial between a newly appointed
Japanese language teacher and the author. Then, the effect of the tools were verified. The
purpose of the development of the tools were to develop tools to guide the self-checking of a
teaching plan by a newly appointed Japanese language teacher when creating the lesson plan
and in this point, the validity was confirmed. In addition, the effects of using the tools were
to reduce the burden on creating lesson plans, improve lesson design that would improve the
quality of lessons, and achieve efficient and effective instructional support. In these cases,
certain results were obtained.

Chapter 1 Research Overview

1.1 Purpose of the research

This research was conducted by a novice Japanese student who belongs to the Japanese language educational institution (hereafter referred to as the Japanese language school) where the author works.

This is done as part of the support for teachers (hereafter referred to as first-time teachers). The purpose of the research is

When creating a plan (hereinafter referred to as a lesson plan) and when a beginner checks his or her own lesson plan

Develop tools to guide. After the development of the tool, it is possible to: 1)

2) I was able to design a better lesson that would lead to an improvement in the quality of the lesson.

3) The author, who is currently in the position of teaching lesson plan guidance for beginners, also uses the tool.

We also verified the three points of whether or not the lesson plans could be taught efficiently and effectively.

do.

1.2 Background

1.2.1 Current situation surrounding Japanese language schools and support for new students

According to a report by the Japanese Language Subcommittee of the Council for Cultural Affairs, Japanese language learners and Japanese language education in Japan

The number of institutions is increasing year by year, and the improvement of the quality and ability of Japanese language education personnel has become an issue.

ing. (2018 "Development and training of human resources for Japanese language education (report)")

In Japan, the shortage of teachers has become a serious problem, and the proportion of first-time teachers has increased.

As a result, the burden of instructing new students and maintaining and improving the quality of classes have become issues. devil

In addition, there are also first-time students who lose confidence due to the burden of class preparation and failures in class, and leave the job in the middle of the semester.

be seen.

The training and support for first-timers after they arrive is up to each school.

There are various laws, but guidance on creating lesson plans is generally carried out as part of class improvement. for example,

In university teaching courses, students create teaching plans before mock classes, and share teaching plans with the university during teaching practice.

It is an initiative to submit first and receive guidance. This initiative is the author's group.

It is also conducted as a part of the training for new employees, and the new employees

The teacher who is in charge of guidance for the new student (hereafter referred to as the guidance officer) submits the lesson plan to the teacher, and the guidance officer

and to point out points for improvement one-on-one and encourage improvement.

assistance is being provided.

1.2.2 Subjects of lesson plan guidance and guidance staff

Machine Translated by Google

At the school where I work, we are targeting students who have less than two years of teaching experience at a Japanese language school in Japan.

Teaching guidance for half a year. In principle, the teaching plan for all the classes taught by the first-time teacher

It is supposed to be submitted to the person in charge one week before the class, but depending on the number of years of experience and circumstances of the first person

It may change accordingly.

The person in charge of instruction is a full-time instructor called a full-time instructor.

The number of people in charge varies depending on the number of people enrolled. As a teacher,

It is based on experience and individual training, and is a qualification that is established to guide beginners.

There is no Curriculum creation, teaching material development, class observation for evaluation at the school where the author works

The person who conducts such activities is mainly in charge of guidance. So far, about 7-8 years of experience in teaching Japanese

However, in recent years, due to an increase in the number of first-timers, even those with little educational background have been instructed.

There is also a situation to do so. For this reason, instructors who are not accustomed to lesson plan instruction

For me, it is a process of trial and error, and it can be said that it is a heavy work load.

1.2.3 Requirements and stages of Japanese language teachers and required expertise

The main requirements for becoming a Japanese language teacher at a Japanese language school are to satisfy one of the following three points.

It is required to fill 1) Take a course related to Japanese language education at a university or graduate school

2) Have passed the Japanese Language Teaching Competency Test 3) Have a bachelor's degree, and

Appropriate Japanese language education training for 420 credit hours or more and completed.

who At the Agency for Cultural Affairs, the levels of teachers (Table 1), the required expertise (Table 2),

Japanese language education coordinator/chief teacher (Table 3) and required expertise (Table 3)

4) is defined as Applicants must also possess the qualities and abilities required of Japanese language education specialists.

As a qualification for Japanese language teachers who

There is no official qualification system to prove the qualifications and abilities of Japanese language teachers. In this way, Japanese teachers

There are multiple training institutions for becoming a teacher, and the curriculum is different.

Since there is no systematic evaluation system in place,

The current situation is that there is also variation in power.

1.2.4 Curriculum and lesson content at Japanese language schools

Since the establishment of Japanese language schools is related to obtaining student visas for learners, the Ministry of Justice (Immigration

administrative agency) to apply for permission. However, regarding the content of classes held at Japanese language schools,

Although there are fixed number of class hours per year and per week,

As a result, we will establish classes suitable for providing Japanese language education according to the purpose of Japanese language learning.

Each school can decide on its own just by saying "to be".

The Ministry of Justice stipulates that a student with a student visa can enroll in a Japanese language school for up to two years.

and many Japanese language schools provide preparatory education for entering higher education institutions.

Therefore, it is required that students acquire Japanese proficiency to the extent that they can study at a higher educational institution in two years.

Therefore, in general, at the beginner level, which is about half a year after entering the school,

In the next half year, the intermediate level will focus on more complex content.

It will shift to the direction of developing reading and writing ability aiming to be able to understand and,

After that, you will be able to understand more abstract and advanced content, use more appropriate treatment expressions,

It is common for classes to be held with the aim of being able to communicate about social themes.

1.2.5 Current Situation and Issues of Lesson Plan Guidance

As a challenge for beginners, it takes time to create a teaching plan, and submission is the day before class.

The day before class, receiving feedback on many points can be a burden.

Insufficient knowledge and class structure are affecting the quality of classes.

Issues faced by instructors include many corrections and time-consuming instruction, teaching proposals for the next day's classes

is submitted in the afternoon and is busy checking. In addition, the ability to guide teachers

There are also situations where teachers who are not enough are in charge of instruction and provide lesson plan guidance, and in terms of effective guidance

is also becoming an issue.

Regarding the preparation of the lesson plan, we will use it to improve the lessons for the Japanese language teacher training stage and the beginning stage.

Hints and advice are taught in a conversational style, procedures for lesson design are shown, and exercises are possible.

There are various examples of how to write lesson plans, and explanations of how to write lesson plans.

has been printed. However, although it is good to learn all of them carefully, they are not things that can be used immediately in the field.

From this point of view, there are many things that are not suitable for beginners who are busy preparing for tomorrow's class today.

Seem.

1.3 Methods

In this study, I focused on grammar classes among the classes offered at the elementary level at the school where I work.

Develop a tool to be used in teaching plan guidance. The main material at this beginner level is the grammar syllabus.

"Basic Japanese for Those Going to Higher Education" (Japan Student Services Organization, Tokyo Japanese Language Education Center)

So, learners who have finished learning hiragana learn mainly about 200 grammars over half a year.

Beginners are often in charge of beginner classes at first, and although it varies from person to person, there are 4 classes per week (1

50 minutes) to 12 classes. There are mainly four classes per day. this

As a general rule, students are supposed to submit lesson plans to their instructors at least one week before the lesson.

After submission, they receive feedback via email and face-to-face. And after class, look back

Take time to check what went well, what could be improved, and what questions you have.

In this research, assuming use in this lesson plan guidance, (1) a lesson plan entry sheet and (2) a lesson plan checklist

Developed a teaching plan, and attached examples of how to fill in the lesson plan ((3) Before using the lesson plan entry sheet and (4) After using the lesson plan entry sheet), (5)

Explanation of examples of entry sheets, ÿ Comparison before and after using the lesson plan sheet, ÿ Teaching plan checklist

A total of 9 items of the explained ÿ manual were created. Open the lesson plan sheet and lesson plan checklist

In order to start the research, we will discuss one of the theories of instructional design, Gagné's 9 professors.

It was designed based on the three questions of Elephant and Mager. 9 Teaching events indicate the basic flow of class structure.

1.4 Significance

By using a tool developed to assist newcomers in preparing lesson plans,

If the burden of creating lesson plans is reduced, and if we can design better lessons, we will be able to

This not only creates a situation in which it is easy for students to continue working, but also maintains the quality of classes as a school.

It will also lead to maintenance and improvement. In the preliminary survey of this study, the goal and evaluation

Discrepancies in value/practice proved to be a challenge, but continued use of the tool

In this way, students will be able to create lesson plans in accordance with the basic flow of lesson design.

It is also expected that they will learn how to write lesson plans that are consistent with their value and practice. Also, guidance

If the burden of teaching lesson plans is reduced for the person in charge, it is possible to use that amount for other work.

3.2 Preliminary

Survey 3.2.1 Outline of Interview

As a preliminary survey for tool development, we extracted the issues for novice teachers and supervisors in lesson plan guidance.

We conducted one-on-one face-to-face semi-structured interviews aimed at The subjects were 3 novice Japanese language teachers

and 4 people with teaching plan experience from 2 Japanese language schools to which the author belongs.

14

Two of them have completed half a year of instruction, and one has started teaching at our school from April 2019.

At the time of the interview, he was receiving guidance on lesson plans. One person in charge of instruction has 3 teaching experience.

1 year, 6 students so far, another 1 about 1 year, 3 students, 2 other 6 months, 2 students and 1 student is.

The pre-determined questions for first-timers are: 1) teaching experience 2) level of class assignment 3)

4) Lesson plan submission situation 5) Difficulties in creating lesson plan 6) Impressions of teaching plan guidance in

general teeth,

1) Teaching experience 2) Responsibility level of new teachers 3) Things they often pointed out 4) Problems and

difficulties in making lesson plans for new teachers 5) What was difficult or difficult in teaching lesson plans 6) teaching plan

7) 7 items about the ideal lesson plan guidance.

3.2.2 Results and analysis of interviews In

addition to grammar, the lessons offered at the elementary level include reading comprehension, listening

comprehension, and writing comprehension. I answered about the teaching plan.

Content taught in class by beginners, such as how to create example sentences and practice methods for introducing sentence patterns based on the answers

At the same time, it was found that they felt difficulty in class design itself, such as how to write lesson plans, how to

set goals, and how to allocate time. Regarding the results of interviews with academic advisors, there were responses

such as that the writing style of the teaching plan itself was different from what was required, that the overall class

design was not done, and that the learning goals and practice did not match. I feel

It turns out that I feel a common problem with. On the other hand, what is not written in the teaching plan

Checks were omitted without realizing it, and I was nervous about how to instruct corrections and feedback

I also found out that I feel a different difficulty than the first person.

3.2.3 Overview of Analysis of Past Teaching Plans and Feedback

In addition to interviews, what kind of points do beginners find difficult in teaching plan guidance?

We collected past teaching plans and feedback to get more information about. So far, the author has submitted lesson

plans for 7 of the first-time teachers who have been in charge of teaching plans, and 5 have been submitted by

colleagues as teachers, for a total of 12 people. Total of 4 lessons from 34

batches were analyzed.

3.2.4 Analysis results of past teaching plans and feedback

Many of the comments on the teaching plans for the 12 students were related to lesson design,22 and grammar.

21 were related to introductory example sentences, 18 were related to practice, and so on. The analysis results are

shown in Appendix 1.

Regarding lesson design, 7 without an introduction or summary,

15
Machine Translated by Google

There were 6 vague goals such as "be able to speak" or "can use the relevant grammar", and 4 were inconsistent between

goals, evaluation, and practice. Since there were a total of 10 points regarding goal setting, evaluation, and practice, we

determined that the discrepancy between goals, evaluation, and practice was a major issue in the preparation of teaching

plans by new teachers. The next most common points related to example sentences were 4 points that the setting of the

example sentences and the example sentences themselves were unnatural, 3 points that the number of example sentences

for each grammar was small, and 3 points that the example sentences were difficult to understand. Not familiar, not concise, etc.

was there. Regarding practice-related matters, only what to practice is written, but not
how to do it: 4;
2 etc. is written only as "practice".

3.3 Development of checklist for


lessons
developed a checklist. The aims of the development are 1) to be able to refer to the lesson
plans before, during, and after the creation of lesson plans using the lesson plan entry sheet
developed at the same time, and 2) to follow the flow of the lesson. 3) The teacher in charge of
the lesson plans checks the checklist and the lesson plan entry sheet submitted by the first-time teacher,
It is to be able to point out the place.
At the time of development, based on Gagné's 9 teaching events (Table 6), a list was
created under the title of "check items" (Table 7). 9 According to the flow of teaching
events, it is divided into three sections: “Introduction,” “Development,” and “Summary.” 1
to 3 of “Introduction” were changed to “Planned” in “Check items”. "Expansion" is "grammatical
It was divided into “Introduction”, “Practice”, and “Feedback (FB)”, and the expression was changed according to the characteristics

of the target class. Of the 9 instructional events, 4 and 5 are "Introduction to Grammar", 6 is "Practice", and 7 is "Feedback (FB)".

and The reason why we changed the expression and increased the number of items in the "check items" was the analysis of the lesson plan.

This is to reflect the results. For example, “4.


``5. Give guidelines for learning'', ``Prepared at least three example sentences for each
grammar''
I drew it." In addition, ``6. Providing opportunities for practice'' was ``assembled a step-by-
step practice from practice 1 to practice 4,'' He said, "I tried to make sure that it didn't
become a bottleneck," and "I wrote down the purpose of the activity." “7. Giving feedback”
consists of “I planned how to give feedback” and “How to check the results of the class”.

up a scene to confirm what we have learned today,” and “9. 3 items: "I set up a scene to
review" and "I planned to guide the next learning."
set eyes.
9 In addition to the “check items” created based on teaching events,

16

A checklist consisting of 15 items was created as "points to note when creating a lesson plan".

These were designed to cover the difficulties in preparing lesson plans that were identified through interviews and

analysis of lesson plans conducted as a preliminary survey. These points are different from "check items" and

include items that cannot be judged objectively as to whether or not they have been planned.

These are the points to keep in mind when creating lesson plans based on my experience in teaching lesson plans.

The purpose is to enable students to improve their teaching plan by themselves by self-checking later.

The whole checklist has separate columns for use by beginners and instructors.

There is a column for writing the "teaching plan serial number". This is the serial number assigned to the right end

of the entry column of the lesson plan sheet, and it is linked to the reason why you marked "ÿ" on the checklist.

It is becoming There are some items that have numbers already written in the serial number column. this is,

This is because the content of the check items and the column of the lesson plan entry sheet are fixed, so that the

first-time teacher can save the trouble of filling it out. As for how to use the checklist, put "ÿ" above the number

and so on.

I was able to make a lesson plan for elementary grammar in the order of "first". In addition, I made it possible to plan with awareness

of Mager's three questions: "Where are you going?", "How do you know if you have arrived?", and "How do you get there?" The

aims of the development were 1) to ensure consistency in the learning objectives, evaluation, and content by filling in the frames,

and 2) to complete the lesson plan by filling in all the details.

It is to be able to cover the information necessary for the image. 3) so that the exercises are properly structured

Also, on the right end of the lesson plan entry sheet, there is a "serial number", which you can check with a check sheet.

This serial number is entered when checking. This makes it possible to know where to look for the grounds for

checking. In addition, the teacher in charge of the lesson pointed out the serial numbers and suggested improvements.

The learning objectives for each grammar are as follows:

Be able to correctly answer example questions to check whether you have understood the precautions for use.”

and ``can make correct sentences with teacher and other learners using example situations and words''. This is

because some grammars only need to be known for their meanings and forms, while others require practice in

order to be able to use them. Next, as exercises, ``can change verbal and pictorial cues (word level) into the correct

form'', ``can receive verbal and pictorial cues and say the correct sentence without a pause'', and `` Can accurately

say the utterances of characters imaginable while looking at about 10 pictures or photographs using the relevant

grammar”, “Can accurately speak about 2 turns of interaction using the relevant grammar without looking at

anything”. We have set up four stages: This is because it is difficult to set the difficulty level of the practice in the

preliminary survey, it is difficult to assemble the practice, it is difficult to understand why the practice is being

conducted, and it is not possible to see the relationship between the practice and the next practice. This is to

I found it difficult to set appropriate goals because they were ambiguous, such as "I can use grammar." In addition,

a diagram is shown at the bottom of the “Basic Information Sheet” so that you can visually understand that these

goals have been raised through the stages. In many cases, the evaluation method was not considered at the

planning stage.

The evaluation method can also be selected from the drop-down list.

Chapter 6. Trial and Formative Evaluation of Support Tools

6.1 Trial use of support tools

To get a formative evaluation of the tools developed so far, we interviewed two novice teachers at my school.

I asked them to write a lesson plan for two lessons using a rule. Beginner A has one year of teaching experience at another school.

At the time of requesting the trial of the tool, I had taken a beginner's class at the school where I work for about 3 months.

I teach once a week (6 classes, 50 minutes each). Beginner B also took beginner class weekly for about 3 months.

Impression entry form, examples of tools ÿ and ÿ, examples of ÿ and ÿ with explanations, conventional lesson plans

These are the 6 points in the entry form example.

In the trial, first of all, do not read the materials for first-timers, but teach them using the conventional form as usual.

I asked him to write a proposal. And after that, after looking over the materials again

I asked them to write a teaching plan for the same class using the tool developed this time. Detailed instructions are below.

It is.

1. Write a teaching plan for one class using the conventional method (teaching plan ÿ)

2. Make a note of the approximate time it took to fill in lesson plan ÿ

3. “Teaching Plan Sheet”, “Teaching Plan Checklist”, “Teaching Plan Filling Sheet and Teaching Plan Checklist”

Read instructions on how to use the sample essay

4. Write a lesson plan for the same class scope as written in lesson plan ÿ on the "teaching plan entry sheet" (teaching plan ÿ)

5. Make a note of the approximate time it took to fill out lesson plan ÿ

6. After writing, make a note of how you felt while writing

7. Self-check the teaching plan ÿ using the “teaching plan checklist”

6.2 Formative assessment of novices

6.2.1 Tool Trial Results

Beginner A found it difficult to use Excel for the school plan entry sheet.

I couldn't get them to use it according to the procedure I did. In addition, I was requested to prepare a lesson plan for two classes.

Of the requests we had received, we only had them actually use the tool once. this

For these reasons, we were unable to obtain sufficient data for a formative evaluation.

We decided to use only the results of trial use as materials for formative evaluation.

Regarding the results of the 1st and 2nd trials for Beginner B, the lesson plan entry sheet and lesson plan checklist

described in the order of First, the time required to fill in the lesson plan for the first time was

It takes about 2 hours to create a lesson plan, whereas the conventional entry sheet was used.

1.5 hours for the case and 1.5 hours for the developed entry sheet. Use checklist

The time taken to complete the revised version after use was 20 minutes.

Regarding the completion status of the lesson plan sheet, refer to the "basic information" sheet for evaluation of learning objectives.

The column was blank. In the revised version, the learning objective of Grammar 1 is set to "learning objective 4".

On the other hand, in "evaluation", "learning objective 2" is selected. In Grammar 2, for Learning Objective 3

In "Evaluation", "Learning Objective 4" is selected. Next, select "Learning Objectives" on the Grammar 1 sheet.

Next, in the second trial, the time required to fill in the lesson plan was 1.5 hours for the conventional form, and 1.5 hours for the developed form.

It took one hour to fill out the lesson plan sheet, which was 30 minutes shorter than the first time. Use checklist

Regarding the status of completing the lesson plan checklist, in addition to the situation that was almost the same as the first time,

Some items were not checked even though the sheet was filled in.

In a face-to-face interview with first-time student B after the trial, he felt that the lesson plan entry sheet was good.

As a point, there was one goal for each practice, so he was able to assemble the practice in order.

Got an answer. Also, if you use the lesson plan entry sheet, you can create a lesson plan to see if you can design a better lesson.

In response to the question of whether it is likely that the burden on the elderly will be reduced, the responses were, respectively, "I think it can be done" and "I think it will be lightened."

I got the answer. The good thing about the teaching plan checklist is that immediately after checking

If you can understand the correction points, and if you use the teaching plan checklist, can you design a better lesson?

In response to the question whether the burden of preparing the lesson plan is likely to be reduced, as with the answer to the lesson entry sheet,

The answers "I think it can be done" and "I think it will be reduced" were obtained. Create a lesson plan on the checklist

Regarding the fact that there are two types of points to keep in mind when creating a lesson plan and items to check, both are necessary.

"Points to keep in mind" was noticed a lot, especially in response to the question "Are there many check items?"

The answer was that they did not think so. In addition, the lesson plan entry sheet and lesson plan checklist will be added in the future.

In response to the question of what you think when it comes to using

Some respondents said that they could improve their skills if they put a checklist at hand and created a lesson plan.

6.2.2 Analysis for formative assessment

There were two changes in the lesson plan that I rewrote after using the checklist the first time. One is the ÿ group

If there were blanks in the “evaluation” section of this information sheet, those that did not match the objectives were selected.

Although it was written, it has been filled in. The other thing is that what did not have a “summary”

This is a point that has been significantly improved. Except for the fact that the second time was shorter than the first time,

There was no improvement in the teaching plan after using the checklist.

For this reason, self-checking by first-timers using checklists does not work very well.

It was thought that After revising the checklist, explain how to use it again and conduct further investigations.

I thought I needed to prove it.

However, when comparing the conventional teaching plan that does not use the lesson plan entry sheet and the lesson plan that uses the lesson plan entry sheet,

Then, the point that the practice is designed step by step and how to check the results of the practice for each practice are described.

I made a correspondence table to investigate which item of the Christ corresponds. Then, the presenter of the previous research

judged how much the improvement points contributed to the clarification of the instruction plan, and scored it. In addition, we conducted

an opinion survey on the effectiveness of investigating what kind of impressions the checklist had. In this study, the resubmitted

research suggest that the use of checklists has reduced the burden of correction on teachers, which is similar to reducing the burden

on instructors, which is one of the objectives of this research. For this reason, this analysis method was also adopted in this study.

8.2 Results of using the checklist

First of all, what was the result of using the checklist of "Points to note when creating a lesson plan"?

If you look closely at this, you will find that beginners attach “ÿ” to indicate what they paid attention to when preparing the lesson plan.

14 out of 15 items were included, and 12 of them had the serial number of the lesson plan.

The only item that was not checked was No. 7, “Plan specific procedures and methods for practice and activities.

It was checked, but the serial number was not written. This is the original

Excluding No. 2, "Let's check the content of the class before and after the section in charge," which does not have a serial number.

And it was only number 9, "Let's check if the time allocation is appropriate." Number 9 is the entire lesson plan entry sheet

It is difficult to fill in all the serial numbers of the applicable parts because it is set over

be. Also, when looking at the corresponding parts of the 12 items with serial numbers, all the intentions are correct.

It was readable. For this reason, I read the "Points to note when creating a lesson plan" and

It turned out that it was the result of being conscious of it. However, in the “Grammar 1” sheet,

Of the three exercises that were set, the goal for the last exercise was set to “Other,” but

On the information sheet side, the goal set as one step below was selected. newcomer

According to the interview, the part where there was a change from the beginning of the plan and after the plan was revised at the end.

It was something I had forgotten.

Next, as a change by using the developed lesson plan entry sheet, we developed a conventional lesson plan entry sheet

The result of the instructor checking the lesson plan entry sheet using the checklist of "check items"

When comparing the results , 9 items out of 14 items using the conventional lesson plan entry sheet

However, when using the sheet developed this time, NG was reduced to 4 items. 10 items left

The breakdown is as follows: 4 items changed from NG to OK, 3 items were originally OK, and it was not NG.

There were 2 items where the content was insufficient, and 1 item where it could not be said from NG to NG but became insufficient.

Met.

Furthermore, as a change due to the use of the checklist, the developed lesson plan entry sheet and checklist

When comparing the results of the teacher's check of the lesson plan entry sheet after use, Section 14

Only two items were marked with NG. Of the remaining 12 items, 11 were OK.

However, there were 2 items that changed from NG to OK.

2 items that were not in a state of not being checked became OK, and were originally OK before using the checklist.

There were 7 items. And it will remain in a state where it cannot be said that it is NG, but it cannot be said that it is OK.

There was one item.

When compared with the checklist checked by the first-timer, the first-timer said it was OK,

There were two items that the person in charge of guidance gave as NG.

8.3 Inspection

Focusing on the content of the results of using the tool, we can see that the traditional lesson plan entry sheet

The improvement when rewriting the lesson plan sheet developed by

minutes. This is because the lesson plan sheet is designed to write the introduction and conclusion.

It seems to be. On the other hand, what did not improve is the example sentences and exercises to present the new grammar.

There were three parts: a part to write down the specific lessons and a part to write down the purpose of the activity. this is by design

Rather, it is related to the content, so even if the first person thinks he or she is planning,

It is inferred that it is not possible. This means that the lesson plan entry sheet will be used to improve the lesson design.

This suggests that, while contributing to the good, it is not possible to support the improvement of the teaching content itself.

The items that were improved after using the checklist are the part where the purpose of the activity is filled in and the summary part.

It was a place to organize and review what I had learned. When I confirmed it when I interviewed the first person,

The first time was simply an omission in the form, which I noticed after checking the checklist. devil

In addition, two of the three items that were insufficiently filled in were in the summary section.

The part that I forgot to select was resolved, and it became OK. For this reason, a checklist is filled out.

I would say it helps prevent leaks.

From the result of using the checklist in the previous section 8.2, it is clear that the lesson plan entry sheet and the lesson plan checklist were used.

In the previous teaching plan, 9 items were NG, but using the entry sheet and checklist

It turned out that it was reduced to two items. This includes the lesson entry sheet and lesson checklist.

This also has the effect of improving the teaching plan, and it is expected that further improvements will be made by using these two together.

is shown. In other words, by using these two tools, revisions are made to the teaching plan, and the teacher's

As a result, load reduction can be expected.

8.4 Research results and future issues

The goal was to develop a tool that would guide them in doing so. Expert review on this point

We were able to confirm its usefulness from the views and interviews with first-timers. In addition, by using the tool,

to reduce the burden on teachers, better class design that leads to improved class quality, and efficient and effective lesson plan guidance.

It was also aimed at realization. Regarding the first point, the results in the previous section are expected to be effective.

With regard to the second point, the goals, evaluation, and contents of the lesson plan entry sheet and the lesson plan checklist

I was able to support the consistent lesson design of In addition, in the formative evaluation by first-timers,

It describes how the exercises are designed step by step and how to check the results of each exercise.

Improvements were seen in class design, such as Regarding the third point, the lesson plan entry sheet and the lesson plan check

By using Cristo, the improvement of the teaching plan progresses, and the time spent on correcting the teaching plan is reduced to the content of the lesson.

It turned out that it can be devoted to the improvement of

As a future task, we will ask other first-timers to use the tool, collect data, and

, so that even instructors who do not know the ID can use the tool correctly,

We will continue to see whether the basics of ID lesson design will gradually be acquired if we continue to use the tool

developed this time.
