Abstract

In this study, for the purpose of teaching the composition to foreign students, we developed gaming materials aiming at creating Warp and Woof model of problem-solving for Japanese writing and framing a schema for writing sentences for Japanese learners. As our research, we introduced this material to 12 Japanese language learners in a university in Japan, and we verified the effect of supporting schema formation by explicit guidance of the relevance of the goodness of sentences and the method of realization. Regarding the level to form the schema, we made a rubric evaluation criteria and evaluated it. The verification of the effect of forming sentence making schema is to realize the sentences of the two tasks created before and after the use of the teaching materials we carried out analysis using comment data of question paper survey, log of teaching materials. As a result, it was possible to obtain suggestions on the relevance of the goodness of sentences and the cognitive level of the instantiation method to success in forming the schema.
