An Implementation of a Japanese Presentation Event and the Evaluation by Participants

Abstract

A Japanese presentation event was implemented with a different format from the traditional Japanese speech contest on campus. Based on the results of surveys with participants, it was found that the objectives of the event were achieved and that the event stimulated participants’ motivation. However, participants’ comments revealed some points for improvement such as the presentation format, the presentation guidelines and management of the equitable division of tasks among group members.
