Japanese Language School Story: The Life Stories of Pioneers

The 1980s, the bubble economy, the plan to accept 100,000 international students... What did educators on the front lines think, how did they interact with learners, and how did they act during this period of change in Japanese language education? This is another "history of Japanese language education" in which cutting-edge researchers record never-before-spoken voices through interviews with "legends" of Japanese language schools. A "Chronology of Japanese Language Education/Japanese Language Schools" is included at the end of the book. There is also a comprehensive glossary of terms (notes).
