The number of required credits of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) in universities has been decreased since "Taikoka" in 1991 as a whole. However, there are some universities, which regard EFL as an important subject. As a result, there is a significant difference between universities in required EFL credits. In addition, it is predicted that the difference of English ability will be extensive between public and private middle and high schools because of a new course of study announced in 1998 and 1999 by the Ministry of Education. With regard to the Japanese EFL learners' environment, there are not many opportunities for them to use English during their middle and high school days. It is important to think of English classes in which they will be able to acquire English while using the language. Moreover, motivation is one of the most important factors of EFL learning. As has been reported, self-directed learning is effective on motivation as an intrinsic interest. Therefore this concept of self-directed learning should be introduced into English classes and developed further. Considering the environment of Japanese EFL learners and motivation, I conducted an English class motivated by self-directed learning. The goals of the class were (1) to make learners think of world social problems and affairs, (2) to give them opportunities to use English and (3) to develop their English reading and communication abilities using English. The class was able to motivate the learners to be interested in world affairs and to communicate in English using oral skills.
