○place: Ehime University Senior High School
○participants: The whole 11th grade

The 1st “Global Studies” class held on the subject “Improve your command of Japanese”. Mr. Shimizu and Mr. Akiyama, who are both professors of Faculty of Law and Letters, Ehime University, are giving a series of lectures on Japanese language for the 1st through 5th classes. The lecturers are going to lecture our students on Japanese language amidst the rapid progression of internationalization and mysterious Japanese language which even Japanese are unaware of.
In today’s class, many easy-to-grasp examples were offered by the lecturers, and it encouraged students to be aware that how they didn’t know Japanese language. Students are studying to pass the Step 2 Level of the Japanese Language Proficiency Test which is the equivalent level of the kanji kentei Step 2 Level or Level 2 of the English Proficiency Exam (Eiken). Students are also studying through an e-learning system in parallel with the classes between 1st and 5th, so that all can pass the exam.
