Shining a spotlight on Japanese language teaching in New Zealand’s universities and tertiary institutions today, this book illustrates how Japanese language programmes are reshaping and reconceptualising the traditional delivery of Japanese to encourage more students to take up, and continue studying, this complex but rewarding subject. Savvy use of social media, institutional outreach, the construction of learning communities, the creation of authentic Japanese-language environments, project-based language learning and curriculum remodelling are some of the topics discussed by a range of experienced academics.
