Development of Japanese Activities for In-serive Teacher Training for Foreing language Activities

本研究开发了15项非英语活动，用于外语活动的在职教师培训。活动包括三项复合词活动、一项歧义句子活动、一项数字活动、一项回文活动、一项数数活动、两项外来词活动和六项汉字活动。其中八项实际上是在茨城大学的在职教师证书续签计划中实施的。受试者对非英语活动的评价不如英语活动高。尽管如此，非英语活动在提高一个人的母语意识方面是有用的。

This study developed 15 non-English activities for in-service teacher training for Foreign Language Activities. The activities include three compound word activities, one ambiguous sentence activity, one number activity, one palindrome activity, one counting activity, two loan word activities, and six Chinese character activities. Eight of them were actually implemented in the in-service teaching certificate renewal program at Ibaraki University. Participants' evaluations of the non-English activities were not so high as those of English activities. Still the non-English activities are useful in promoting one's awareness of the mother tongue.
