JLP&ELP

           It was so much fun to have ELP&JLP exchange class. At the JLP time, the topic got me think about Japan more. Our group's topic was "日本人と外国人" and I never think the difference. Some of JLP students have negative image of Japanese personality. For ELP time, I think it was good chance to hear different opinion about my essay topic. I could realize what I was not think about or have not done researching. Their opinion was different point of view with Japanese people and it was new for me, so it was great time for me.
          I think every ELP or JLP class should do that. It is useful and good chance to make new friend, too. :)

Essay Topic

I am thinking that my essay topic will be something connect with intercultural communication and study abroad.

In my opinion, student should go studying abroad, learn different culture or language, and study different thinking way or systems. However, the number of Japanese people go studying abroad is decreasing. The issue is how the Japanese government increase the number and why they should do so. In addition, we need to know what is the benefit of going abroad for studying. I am also wondering what other country do for problems for study abroad how does it work and why not Japanese government does not do anything for this problems. If the government do something, why does not work?
Those are my possible essay topic.
