AB - It is believed that a lack of enthusiasm for studying and learning at junior college in Korea has recently been rather common. This, in turn, negatively affects both the students’ lifestyle and their activities regarding gaining employment later on, and our school is no exception. In order for us to find a method to solve the problem, we conducted oral interviews with students of the Japanese language on a one-to-one basis. We have discovered that evaluations done by some teachers are too strict which makes it difficult for students to gain good marks regardless of how much a student tries, and which in turn leads to problems and dissatisfaction among students. In addition, the level of some classes is considered too high overall which makes it difficult for students to gain good marks regardless of the efforts made by the students, which also leads to problems and dissatisfaction. In line with the above, we in this study developed and conducted a conversation test called “Showcase” with the purpose of eliminating dissatisfaction caused from the above mentioned evaluations. The test led to an increase in the level of satisfaction. The result of written surveys and of oral interviews showed that about 60 percent of students somehow feel that “Showcase” is effective. It was also revealed that about 80 percent of students achieved better results. Furthermore, it is possible to utilize “Showcase” on various occasions, show it to other students, look back at oneself, and review the contents of one studies. Thus the conversation test “Showcase” contributes to fairer evaluations, and makes it more fun and more enjoyable for students, leading to more satisfaction and motivation among them.
