Abstract
NHK TV program "Otona no Shiken (adult's examination)" was used at the advanced Japanese language class. The program is (a) very attractive for students; (b) easy to prepare for the class; (c) suitable for technical Japanese education. The program is also a good material to introduce Japanese culture to international students. In the class, writing tasks were given after watching the program in order to improve the ability to write "method", "result" and "discussion" in technical reports. Most of the students seemed to have comprehended the contents of the program, but showed a tendency that they lack in the ability of writing sentences logically. Much effective method for improving technical writing ability is expected by utilizing the program.
