Much effort has been put into the ongoing teaching process to improve Chinese students' level of learning capabilities in universities. The paper investigates whether it is effective to improve Japanese learning by participating in extracurricular activities. Sixteen Japanese major students were instructed and trained by Japanese instructors collectively to practice karate. Comparison in scores and motivations in Japanese language learning was made in one year's time, upon which the conclusion of how effective such activities could be in assisting Japanese learning is drawn, followed by analysis and suggestions of whether such conduct should be popularized.
