As globalization advances, global education has become an issue of great urgency in Japan. The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) is implementing a plan to double the number of Japanese students studying abroad by the year 2020. However, global education has already lost its appeal in Japan, except among a portion of elite class students. Measures must therefore be taken to make global education more attractive to students who currently have no interest in participating in international exchanges or studying abroad. The “On-Campus Global Project-Based Learning” program, which involves international students studying in Japan and uses English as the language of communication, is now considered as an effective means of global education that does not rely on studying abroad. Based on observations and interviews with Japanese students who participated in Global PBL, this paper is a study of an “On-Campus Global PBL” lecture planning.
