Abstract

This study examined the issues and characteristics with regard to quotation/interpretation of materials, using oral presentations and Q&A sessions conducted by foreign students in engineering and technology seminars. We divided the issues regarding quotation that participants pointed out into three types: “the source of the information was unclear,” “material to back-up the claims was insufficient,” and “how to position prior studies”. “Material to back-up the claim was insufficient” and “how to position prior studies” did not refer to the instruction that rules concerning quoted material were not obeyed. Instead, what was presented was closely related to the value of the entire thesis, not limited to partial issues. Thus, it was noted that proper quotation and interpretation of the materials could improve the value of the students’ study; this type of effective quotation/interpretation of the materials is considered especially necessary in the final stages of the study. It is presumed that guidance in quoting and interpreting materials is required at various stages of the study.
