In the original plan, the new test is to replace the current National\nCenter Test for University Admission, jointly administered by the state-affiliated National\nCenter for University Entrance Examinations and universities. While the current standardized\nentrance exam only evaluates takers’ English reading and listening skills, the private-sector\ntest could also evaluate writing and speaking skills in a more comprehensive manner (Kyodo,\n2019b). Johnston (2019) pinpoints that criticism about the private-sector test in multiple\naspects, the test location, higher fees, and one operator of “Test of English for International\nCommunication (TOEIC)” has withdrawn from participation. Finally, the National Association\nof Upper Secondary School Principals in September requested the cancellation, or at least a\nrevision of the planned introduction of the English proficiency tests in 2020 for the lack of\ninformation that MEXT needs to, in fact, take corrective measures.\nA researcher has been utilizing the EIKEN Tests (Test in Practical English Proficiency,\nknown as EIKEN below) on university first-year students as a kind of self-learning in the\ncompulsory course at Niigata University of International and Information Studies (known\nas NUIS below) since 2014. Although the potential value and effectiveness of the test are\nproved by quantitative findings and analysis of students’ results, it still carries meanings to\nstudy further about the influences of EIKEN tests on EFL class in Japan. In this paper, the\nresearcher is going to look at some positive reviews from test takers at NUIS, which has been\nawarded the MEXT Minister Prize for two continuous years the largest number of EIKEN\ntests’ passers. Also, the researcher is going to see the validation of EIKEN Tests among EFL\nlearners in Japan territory educational institutes.","subitem_description_type":"Abstract"}]},"item_10002_publisher_8":{"attribute_name":"出版者","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_publisher":"新潟国際情報大学国際学部"}]},"item_10002_source_id_9":{"attribute_name":"ISSN","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_source_identifier":"2189-5864","subitem_source_identifier_type":"ISSN"}]},"item_10002_version_type_20":{"attribute_name":"著者版フラグ","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_version_resource":"http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85","subitem_version_type":"VoR"}]},"item_creator":{"attribute_name":"著者","attribute_type":"creator","attribute_value_mlt":[{"creatorNames":[{"creatorName":"SATO, Yasuko"},{"creatorName":"サトウ, ヤスコ","creatorNameLang":"ja-Kana"}],"nameIdentifiers":[{"nameIdentifier":"3798","nameIdentifierScheme":"WEKO"}]},{"creatorNames":[{"creatorName":"Sato, Yasuko","creatorNameLang":"en"}],"nameIdentifiers":[{"nameIdentifier":"3286","nameIdentifierScheme":"WEKO"}]}]},"item_files":{"attribute_name":"ファイル情報","attribute_type":"file","attribute_value_mlt":[{"accessrole":"open_date","date":[{"dateType":"Available","dateValue":"2020-07-01"}],"displaytype":"detail","filename":"kiyo_2020.02.03.pdf","filesize":[{"value":"1.3 MB"}],"format":"application/pdf","licensetype":"license_note","mimetype":"application/pdf","url":{"label":"kiyo_2020.02.03","url":"https://nuis.repo.nii.ac.jp/record/3185/files/kiyo_2020.02.03.pdf"},"version_id":"09113619-e421-461b-9001-609af436279c"}]},"item_language":{"attribute_name":"言語","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_language":"eng"}]},"item_resource_type":{"attribute_name":"資源タイプ","attribute_value_mlt":[{"resourcetype":"departmental bulletin paper","resourceuri":"http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501"}]},"item_title":"Validation of the EIKEN Tests in Japanese University’s English Foundation Course — A Case Study on Teaching EFL Students at NUIS","item_titles":{"attribute_name":"タイトル","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_title":"Validation of the EIKEN Tests in Japanese University’s English Foundation Course — A Case Study on Teaching EFL Students at NUIS"},{"subitem_title":"Validation of the EIKEN Tests in Japanese University’s English Foundation Course — A Case Study on Teaching EFL Students at NUIS","subitem_title_language":"en"}]},"item_type_id":"10002","owner":"10","path":["102"],"pubdate":{"attribute_name":"公開日","attribute_value":"2020-07-01"},"publish_date":"2020-07-01","publish_status":"0","recid":"3185","relation_version_is_last":true,"title":["Validation of the EIKEN Tests in Japanese University’s English Foundation Course — A Case Study on Teaching EFL Students at NUIS"],"weko_creator_id":"10","weko_shared_id":-1},"updated":"2023-05-15T12:32:13.537258+00:00"}
