This study investigates junior high school curricula and specific classes by which to propose measures to take in order to ameliorate grammar learning in Japanese and English education. In the first period (2004) we carried out research on the analyses of present descriptions of grammar that the junior high school textbooks (approved by MEXT) of ‘eigo' (English) and of ‘kokugo' (Japanese) give. We also proposed how to teach grammatical materials by making up a standardized syllabus for both English and Japanese. For this purpose we examined six English textbooks and five Japanese textbooks, especially the ones published by Sanseido, Mitsumura, and Tokyo Shoseki. We first discussed word level problems including parts of speech, then we examined sentence level issues including syntax and discourse. Finally, we presented a standardized grammar syllabus which was intended to be utilized both in English and Japanese classes.In the second period (2005) we researched specific classes and proposed better lesson plans. We first asked junior high school students how they recognized grammar learning by questionnaire. We found that junior high school students are generally not very much interested in grammar although they think it necessary. We also found that the grammar learning did not lead students to think language and languages deeply. In order to improve this situation, we presented students worksheets developed based on heuristic instruction to interest them in grammar learning.

本研究调查了初中课程和具体班级，以提出改善日语和英语教育中语法学习的措施。在第一阶段（2004年），我们对初中教科书（文部科学省批准）的“eigo”（英语）和“kokugo”（日语）给出的语法描述进行了分析研究。我们还提出了如何通过制定英语和日语的标准化教学大纲来教授语法材料。为此，我们检查了六本英语教科书和五本日语教科书，特别是三省堂、光村和东京商石出版的教科书。我们首先讨论了包括词性在内的单词级问题，然后我们研究了包括语法和语篇在内的句子级问题。最后，我们提出了一个标准化的语法教学大纲，旨在用于英语和日语课程。在第二阶段（2005年）我们研究了具体的课程并提出了更好的教案。我们首先通过问卷调查的方式询问了初中生对语法学习的认识。我们发现，初中生普遍对语法不太感兴趣，尽管他们认为有必要。我们还发现语法学习并没有引导学生深入思考语言和语言。为了改善这种情况，我们向学生提供了基于启发式教学开发的工作表，以激发他们对语法学习的兴趣。
