A Development of Audio-visual Materials of Technical Japanese Language for International Students.

如果我们能用视频材料教国际学生在科学和工程实验室中使用的基本日语表达，那将是很有用的。然而，在目前的市场上，几乎没有这样的视频材料，而且需要这样的视频材料。因此，这个视频制作项目应运而生。它首先开发了一个经常出现在工程教科书和实验手册中的有用表达的词汇表，这些表达被归类为几个类别，如描述术语和动作或操作术语，在每个类别中，几个含义相似或相关概念的表达又被进一步归类为单元。最终的录像带产品包括十卷73个单位。这些视频材料的每个单元都以学生能够识别它们之间的明显差异的方式呈现相关的表达。还开发并出版了一本附带的教科书，帮助学生学习这些表达方式。

It would be useful if we could use video materials to teach international students basic Japanese expressions that are to be used in science and engineering laboratories. There is, however, almost none in the current market, and there is a need for such video materials. Thus, this video production project began.It started with development of a glossary of useful expressions that frequently appear in engineering textbooks and lab manuals, and those expressions were grouped into several categories such as 'descriptive terms' and 'action or operation terms, ' Within each category, several expressions with similar meanings or related ideas are further grouped into 'units.' The final video products contain 73 units in ten volumes. Each unit of these video materials present the related expressions in the way that students can identify distinctive differences among them. An accompanying textbook was also developed and published to help students learn these expressions.
