Active participation in learning is a central concept in many higher education institutions in Japan. For science and technology students in particular, learning approaches that promote collaboration, self-regulatory practices, and critical thinking in the L2, are especially encouraged in order to help prepare students for real-life research and/or professional situations. A collaborative learning initiative, iLearn, is introduced in this paper, which aims to help raise awareness of the qualities of good scientific writing and presentations by encouraging critical evaluation of authentic research through peer-review practices. Methodologically, the researchers examined peer-review exchanges of scientific posters and papers and then used content analysis to identify, categorize, and analyze meaningful exchanges. The authors concluded that it is worthwhile to implement collaborative programs that can help sci-tech learners to participate effectively in international and intercultural settings. 日本の多くの高等教育機関において、アクティブラーニングは中心的な概念となっている。とりわけ、科学技術(sci-tech)を専攻する学生にとって、実際の研究や就職後の状況に備えて、L2での協同作業、自己調整の実践、批判的思考を促進する学習アプローチは高く推奨されている。本研究では、査読行為を通して本格的な研究に批判的評価を行うことで、優れた科学的文章やプレゼンテーションの質に対する意識を高めることを目的とした、協同学習の取り組み(iLearn)を紹介する。研究方法としては、科学ポスターや論文の査読を内容分析によって考察し、有益なやり取りの分類を行った。本論は、sci-techの学習者が国際的・異文化的な環境に効果的に参加できるような協同学習プログラムを実施することは有意義であると結論づける。
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
