An exploration of intercultural competence among Japanese: towards a more balanced understanding of emic and etic perspectives
In an increasingly globalised world, the development of intercultural competence (IC) among Japanese English as a foreign language (EFL) students has gained great importance. However, an adherence to native speaker norms, essentialist views of culture, and an inability of the English education system in Japan to promote the use of English as a tool for intercultural communication pose major challenges to the development of IC in Japan.

Exploring language in Chinese college students’ English public speaking contests from a genre perspective and its implications for English Language Teaching
Second language vocabulary acquisition is one of the most difficult and daunting tasks a language learner has to face. The last 30 years has seen an emergence in the importance of language learning strategies in language learning in general and, by extension, vocabulary acquisition. This dissertation assesses which vocabulary learning strategies learners use and how helpful they believe them to be among three different contexts in Japan.
