In this research we developed Japanese language multimedia CAI software for foreign school children, incorporating the basic vocabulary and expressions considered necessary to be able to participate in Japanese school life. In order to respond to the many needs of foreign students, the conversational passages and explanations were translated into English, Chinese, Spanish, and Portuguese.Because the field of developing Japanese language materials for foreign students is a relatively new field, in the course of research it waw first of all necessary to ascertain the current situation of education for foreign children in Japanese schools, and to gather information and research about it. In preparing our materials, reference was made to Japanese language textbooks and software not only for children but also for adults.Next, with regard to the materials developed up to 1993, (that is, textbook with 10 situations), written materials(Japanese spoken expressions and translations into the four languages mentioned above), audio materials(a taped version of the written materials), "still" materials(illustrations), "moving" materials(a video of school situations), and multimedia software materials were completed. These materials simulated everyday experiences in Japanese schools. The completed software was used experimentally by foreign school children, and their reactions, and opinions recorded and the results used in making a Chinese translation of a Junior high school science textbook, including a CAI version of part of that textbook.Finally, description of the course of the research, of the structure and contents of the materials developed, and of problems encountered in producing the materials, and individual research reports, etc., were included in a Research Report.

在本研究中，我们开发了日语多媒体CAI软件，为外国学校的孩子，包括基本的词汇和表达被认为是必要的，能够参与日本的学校生活。为了满足留学生的各种需求，将对话和说明翻译成了英语、汉语、西班牙语和葡萄牙语。由于留学生日语教材的开发是一个较新的领域，因此在研究过程中，首先要弄清日本学校中外国儿童教育的现状，收集资料和进行研究。在编写教材时，不仅参考了儿童用的日语教科书和软件，也参考了成人用的日语教科书和软件。其次，关于到1993年为止编写的教材，（即10种情况的教科书）、书面材料（日语口语表达和上述四种语言的翻译），音频材料完成了“静态”材料（插图）、“动态”材料（学校情况录像）和多媒体软件材料。这些材料模拟了日本学校的日常经验。最后，本文介绍了本研究的过程、材料的结构和内容，以及在制作过程中遇到的问题。和个人研究报告等，被列入研究报告。
