Projects to Spread DLA

During the three years from 2010 to 2012, we undertook a project called “Development of an Evaluation Method of Japanese Language Ability Usable in School Education” from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology and developed a tool to evaluate the Japanese language ability of non-Japanese schoolchildren called Dialogic Language Assessment (DLA). This evaluation tool includes support to evaluate the language ability of children of various linguistic and cultural backgrounds through a one-to-one interlocution.

We upload the visual manual of DLA created at the University on YouTube, as well as offering promotion activities.
