概要

論文の詳細を見る
This article will suggest criteria for the evaluation of learners' cultural competence within the framework of English teaching. The author assumes that the idea of 'respect for other cultures' is the most important criterion. Through a survey of culture-related articles and books in language education, it will be shown that this assumption is valid. Firstly, an examination of the concepts of 'culture', 'respect', and 'respect for other cultures' will reveal elements common to each of them. Secondly, a survey of the literature concerning the evaluation of culture, or of evaluation itself, will reveal general trends in the study of culture-related evaluation. Thirdly, resulting from the application of taxonomic procedures, the author will introduce the hierarchical stages of evaluation. Lastly, the author will present an evaluation chart derived from investigation and experimentation. Such a chart will be a helpful introduction to English teachers for evaluating their students' 'cultural respect'.
