This research is going to be a comprehensive study of English medium instruction (EMI) of GIGA program at Shonan Fujisawa Campus of Keio University. Japanese Government has been enforcing usage of EMI in Higher Education (HE) in Japan for more than 10 years by now. Although there were researches conducted on EMI in HE in Japan so far, there is no much research on student and teacher assessments comprehensively on one case study. This research is going to be one of those studies to fill in the gap of more comprehensive studies of EMI cases in HE Japan.
The study will also dig into history of GIGA program, challenges and opportunities the program has faced after its launch in 2008, which is one of the first in Japan. Overall, the student and teacher assessments study is going to be a part of more comprehensive study of EMI in GIGA, which will be a Master\u2019s Thesis by the end.

Japan has witnessed a rapid increase in cross-border marriage. A number of studies have focused on the path leading to the cross-border couples’ marital life and through rasing children. My research try to explore and have a deep study on the implications on children\u2019s self-cognition under the development of language parenting (mono\/multilanguage both at home and outside home) and changes of social (educational) environment in international marriage family in Japan through childhood to adulthood. Through the resrarch, It tries to build up the relationship between language parenting, educational environment and cross border childrens; groth and aims to raise the awareness of parents, schools and society on puting more effort helping them with their linguistic and identical cognition.

My research analyzes Korean Language textbooks made for female marriage immigrants in South Korea by the National Institute of Korean Language. The goal of this research is to critically explore the cultural representation of Korea focusing specifically in traditional gender role imposed on female immigrants through the lens of patriarchal ideology. I question the achievement of the textbooks\u2019 aimed goal, \u201cto help marriage immigrants learn Korean language and culture, adapt to Korean daily and social life, and communicate smoothly with members of Korean society. Furthermore, this book is made to help organize children’s education and work life of marriage immigrants to be successful.\u201d How are female immigrants marginalized in the textbooks\u2019 contents, dialogues, texts, and images? I hope that through this research, female immigrants dominated by aggressive ideologies would have a chance to speak up their voices in Korean society.

PANAGIOTIDOU CHRYSOULA (2nd year Doctoral student, Graduate School of Media and Governance).
My research revolves around Student Mobility and Intercultural Communication. International students who take up postgraduate research programmes in their second or third language at global universities are faced with two main challenges: a) interacting with and adjusting to the local environment in which they newly reside in b) while simultaneously competing in both global and local academia. This is to suggest that international students are often expected to establish and pursue their personal research interests while juggling unfamiliar cues professionally and personally. Community involvement and multimedia technology contribute to alleviate the unfamiliarity or mediate (and perhaps mitigate troubles) in the process. Through ethnographic study, I aim to collect personal stories and through diverse individuals point out common challenges and common strategies that students adapt into their daily life in order to pursue their research goals.
Yaeko HORI (Doctor’s 1st year, the second semester, Graduate School of Media and Governance)
The ultimate aim of the PhD thesis is to search for a way to build safe, sustainable and tolerant society\/the world, and beyond, through communications. In fact, I see great potential in the recent conceptualization of the translanguaging concept (which encompasses linguistic, cultural, modal, material, and sensual resources) in contributing to such continuous searching. In so doing, the current research investigates lived experience of people living in a local town in Japan (short-stay\/long-stay\/migrant foreign people and also Japanese people whom the migrants interact with). As for theoretical framework, while utilizing the recent translanguaging concept, I would particularly focus on the relations between interactants (research targets) and their respective \u2018perceived\u2019 resources (for this, I will refer to some recent theories of Self in Psychology). Regarding methodology, I attempt to further explore Moment Analysis; to be specific, I try examining in-depth the connection between Moment Analysis and Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis. In this way, I am hoping to provide a deeper and more nuanced understanding of how immigrants and the Japanese people make sense of their relations with their \u2018resources\u2019 in building various relationships while living in the today\u2019s world amidst internal and external asymmetries of power.
Estelle Rust (Doctor’s 1st year, Graduate School of Media and Governance )
My research examines how engagement between heritage institutions (such as museums, galleries, and historical sites\/buildings within a community) and new audiences can assist with developing regional towns and the experience of diversity on the ground level. In particular, I will look at how Japanese historical media targeting a female audience can encourage new ways of looking at Japanese history, how it can include young female voices in the processes of heritage production and consumption, and how this in turn can contribute to local development practice. This research seeks to give voice to audiences that are overlooked by traditional narratives regarding who history is for, who participates in it, and the potential that the inclusion of new diverse voices has in challenging conventional discourses surrounding cultural\/heritage institutions.” <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
