Abstract
In preparation for the development of career development teaching materials for international students, analysis was performed on: (1) career development teaching materials, (2) business Japanese teaching materials and (3) practical reports on classwork aimed at career development. The results revealed that most materials intended for international students were about business Japanese, and that few are designed to help them consider their long-term careers beyond post-study employment. This paper highlights the importance of developing teaching materials that encourage them to consider their career plan at an early stage of their university study and enable them to choose from diverse work options including employment in Japan.
