  • Social Constructs of Club Activity Problems: A Background of Recent Reforms in School Extracurricular Activities Utilizing Newspaper Media Discourse

抄録

This paper traces the public discourse regarding Japanese school activities via articles from the Asahi-Newspaper, combined with an analysis that clarifies the transitions and characteristics of recent club activity reforms and their development. Since the latter half of the 2010s, school club activities experienced rapid reforms. With this, academic research focused on club activities revitalized; studies that point out various problems relating to club activities, research that asserts the significance of school activities, and studies that propose positive suggestions for future club activities became common. In this paper, however, we examine the generation and background influence connected to club activity problems, reviewing the discourse about club activities with a focus on how these club activity problems were discussed, rather than giving an analysis of the particular situation for problems. For many years, it has been suggested that the problem of club activities has much to do with society’s perspective of corporal punishment and the ways in which teachers are trained to work, without drastic reforms being addressed. However, since the 2010s, policies have been implemented in quick succession to reform the rules and impact the environment of club activities. In this research, we found a total of 331 articles published in the Asahi-Newspaper that focused on the topic, “club activities.” Those with this topic in the title published in the “opinion” section of the paper are used as material for analysis with the following findings: First, an analysis focusing on the content of the articles as well as club-related posters examined, confirms a recent increase in the number of articles posted regarding club activities. A trend is noted of fewer articles that affirmed club activities to more articles that gave a negative impression of them. Also, it became clear that as children developed greater affirmation of club activities, adults began to refuse participation in them. Second, until the 2000s, there were few criticisms regarding club activity hours in relation to the five-day school system. However, such ideas were extinguished by the opinions of teachers and children who insisted on the educational significance of club activities as the right of the students. Third, the number of criticisms of club activities increased after the well-publicized corporal punishment cases that occurred in 2012, most of which were blamed on the systemic problems infecting club activities. In addition, after these incidents, not only teachers and parents, but also children began to harbor negative opinions regarding club activities. lending books and materials, to an “in-house experience” service that encourages browsing, studying, and participation in library-held events. The purpose of this study is to examine the various services provided by public libraries and discern the extent to which they are well-known among their users. This study describes the actual image of libraries from the users’ perspective. The following findings can be stated: First, by gender, women are more likely to be aware of the changed services. Second, by age group, awareness of services is higher among those in their 30s and 40s, and lower among those in their 70s and above. Lastly, the percentage stating they “did not know” any of services, is particularly high among the elderly.
