Introduction
My research interests are in exploring the connection between L2 literacy development and systemic functional linguistics.
More specifically, I have been researching (1) the school genre distribution in Japanese EFL textbooks for primary schools, lower-and upper-secondary schools, in order to develop L2 learners' literacy, and (2) the ideologies inherent in Japanese EFL textbooks, in order to develop L2 learners' critical reading skills.

Written corrective feedback (WCF) is a key aspect of second language (L2) writing development and language acquisition, facilitating scaffolding to L2 learners and their cognitive awareness.

Two of the major technologies to promote L2 writing are e-portfolios and automated written corrective feedback (AWCF). Notably, feedback-rich portfolios facilitate L2 learners’ self-regulation and writing de...

Literacy is viewed as a social activity where language and context co-participate in making meaning and as a prerequisite for individuals to fully participate in society. However, previous research on L2 literacy...
There has been an increasing demand to develop L2 literacy in ESL/EFL contexts to facilitate communication in the rapidly globalizing world; thus, it is crucial for TESOL educators to promote writing practice that can meet such demand. However, previous studies on English literacy education in Japan have demonstrated that the teaching practice focu...
This reflection presents my teaching practice at university to improve L2 learners’ speaking performance through distance learning. In order to facilitate learners’ interaction in the speaking tasks provided via synchronous computer-mediated communication (SCMC), I offered asynchronous computer-mediated communication (ACMC) pre-tasks in advance sin...
