ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study is to analyze the learning of teacher practitioners in teaching Japanese pronunciation obtained through exchange of opinions between the teacher practitioners. Based on their learning, this study discusses the support in teacher practitioners’ learning. In 2012, participant observations and interviews were conducted at a pronunciation class at a Graduate School in Tokyo. First, this paper analyzes the contents of the mailing list (ML), which includes 199 contents used for planning and reflecting on pronunciation teaching by teacher practitioners. Second, the characteristics of the ML contents are analyzed. Third, the learning gained by teacher practitioners through exchange of opinions in the ML is discussed. It is found that the ML functioned as a place to conduct reflection and planning mainly on three axes: (1) pronunciation teaching activities by teacher practitioners, (2) the state of learners, and (3) the environment of pronunciation teaching. In the ML, textualization was done through writing about the pronunciation. Teacher practitioners made cycles of planning, execution, reflection and reconstruction. In this way, the teacher practitioners improved their professional skills. Hence, in developing and supporting pronunciation teaching, it is necessary to create a place to exchange opinions specializing in pronunciation teaching between teacher practitioners. As a support to pronunciation teaching for teacher practitioners, it will be possible to improve the quality of pronunciation teaching and improve professional skills by providing an environment to exchange opinions on planning and reflection on pronunciation teaching. In addition, the exchange of opinions between teacher practitioners through the internet, like the ML in this study, will be able to create a new learning field beyond the walls of educational fields.
