A study about transnational strategies in education taken by Japanese students overseas

这项研究调查了上日本星期六学校的经历对学生未来职业生涯的影响。首先，研究发现，他们中的许多人认为这段经历对他们以后的职业生涯是一个积极的因素；他们报告说，他们在星期六学校形成的学习经历和人际网络帮助他们做出了职业选择。其次，一所星期六的学校似乎正在为那些长期居留和/或永久居民的孩子提供一个学习日语和文化习俗的地方，并检查他们的“日本身份”。

This study investigated how the experiences of attending to a Japanese Saturday school affected the students in their later career. First, it was found that many of them considered the experience as a positive factor in their later career; they reported that the learning experiences and the personal network they had formed at the Saturday school helped them in making career choices. Second, it appeared that a Saturday school was serving those children of long-term sojourners and/or permanent residents a place to acquire Japanese languages and cultural practices and to check their "Japanese identity."
