A new course at 快播视频 offered Japanese language students an opportunity to connect with a group of pen pals in Japan.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Intermediate Written Communication in Japanese (JP2010) is a full-year elective that focuses solely on writing, says Noriko Yabuki-Soh<\/strong>, an associate professor in the Department of Languages, Literatures and Linguistics. And, no wonder.<\/p>\n\n\n

\u201cLearning to write in Japanese takes time because there are three different writing systems which also incorporate Chinese characters,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yabuki-Soh was eager to connect her students with the Japanese community through their writing as a way of ensuring the students had an authentic experience and learned some of the colloquial expressions commonly used in Japan today. She turned to York International, experts in globally networked learning (GNL)<\/strong><\/a>, for assistance. GNL is an approach to teaching, learning and research that enables students, faculty and non-academic researchers from different locations around the world to participate in, and collaborate on, knowledge-making processes and concrete research projects. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

York International connected Yabuki-Soh with faculty at York partner universities and she found an interested colleague, Professor Jin Abe at Hitotsubashi<\/a> University, a Tokyo-based national university and 快播视频 exchange partner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To interest Japanese students in taking part, Yabuki-Soh created a recruitment poster and promotional video. Not only did local students apply; there were responses from students from other countries who were studying at Hitotsubashi, as well as Hitotsubashi students studying on exchange programs in other countries. Sixteen students joined the program to work with Yabuki-Soh\u2019s class, which also had 16 students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt was a very diverse group with students from all over the world,\u201d she said. \u201cIt was good for our students to work with other people their own age who had similar interests.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The two groups interacted every two weeks throughout the course through various writing projects and using Google Docs. For example, Yabuki-Soh assigned her students to write opinion pieces for posting online on topics that interested them, providing samples in Japanese newspapers for guidance, and their Japanese peers would comment about the ideas put forward. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019d review opinion pieces together in class, ensuring they understood the grammar, and I\u2019d lecture about the writing style appropriate to the task,\u201d she said. \u201cPosting the pieces to Google Docs worked well, given the 14-hour time difference. The Japanese students could comment at any time of day.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For another project, Yabuki-Soh paired each York student with a Japanese student, provided them with a list of questions and asked them to interview each other about the city where they lived or the town where they grew up. The York students were required to create an essay about their partners using the proper format for quotes. The York students also used the content for their final course essay, comparing their own hometown to their partner\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThey learned a lot about each other,\u201d Yabuki-Soh said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While class interaction was confined to Google Docs, students who expressed an interest in sharing their email addresses had the opportunity to connect individually with their overseas counterparts.<\/p>\n\n\n

Jessell Miranda<\/strong>, a graduating economics major, said she studied both Korean and Japanese because she loves the languages. With no advanced Japanese class offered during the winter semester, she opted for the writing course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI don\u2019t want to lose what I\u2019ve learned, and I wanted to test my understanding of the language,\u201d Miranda said. \u201cIt was really fun and enjoyable, because we were communicating with people from our own age group, not simply talking to the professor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI feel more confident about writing as a result, but I also realize how much more there is to learn.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Risha Pelchat<\/strong>, a fourth-year translation major at Glendon College, called the class \u201camazing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt gave me the chance to apply what I\u2019ve learned in real life,\u201d she said. \u201cIn addition to being able to apply Japanese in a real-life situation, I was able to deepen my cultural understanding. Moreover, the Japanese students were from the same generation and relatable, which made our interactions especially enjoyable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe course was invaluable. It took my Japanese to another level. Now, I can write and be confident that people will understand what I\u2019m saying in just about any situation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lisa Endersby<\/strong>, the educational developer from the Teaching Commons who assisted with the GNL portion of the class, added, \u201cGNL is a powerful, practical model for faculty to engage in the same experiences they hope to share with their students \u2013 meaningful collaboration, cross-cultural learning and academic work to impact timely, global issues. The faculty I support in GNL projects often share how these experiences are uniquely impactful for their students\u2019 personal and professional development, connecting them to people and places they may have previously only read about.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
