Abstract

As an activity to enhance the reading comprehension for Japanese intermediate learners, the effects of making and presenting a resume in a poster with partner(s) in a group, were investigated (study 1). There was no effect of an activity on the reading comprehension. Furthermore, in study-2, after an activity (similar with study-1), a conversation about the presentation and re-making a resume, were performed. As a result, an improvement in comprehension was shown. Both study-1 and -2 show inaccurate self-evaluation of comprehension, therefore for enhancing the reading comprehension, explicit feedbacks are necessary.
