Graduation Paper ★ Feb 12, 2007

For my graduation research paper I have decided it would be interesting to write on the topic of ALT. More specifically, I would like to research the following:
-Can ALTs motivate students to study English?
-Do students like to talk with an ALT?
-Do students have opportunities to talk with an ALT inEnglish?
-How long does each student talk with an ALT in English on average?
-Do students have chances to talk with an ALT outside of the class?
-Can the communication with an ALT give studentsmotivation for studying English?
-Do students have chances to know about other cultures from ALTs?
With the results, I hope that I can suggest how we can devise classes effectively with an ALT, and how we can let students interact in intercultural communication with an ALT. Because I have not yet narrowed my interests and I am unsure whether my topic is appropriate, I have not been able to decide on a title. I appreciate your advice on whether or not my topic is appropriate for this paper. Please leave me any comments!!!
