At Iwate University, we have increased the number of programs where our students can spend a year
abroad, which is a part of the internationalization of our education. However, due to the lack of reading
volume in English, many of the students still read English paragraphs very slowly, sentence by sentence .
As a result, it becomes extremely difficult for them to obtain a high enough score on TOEFL iBT, which is
required for acceptance as an exchange student by our partner institutions. It is necessary for students to
read fast and efficiently.
In this presentation, the presenter will discuss how she is trying to develop a user-friendly program which
combines graded readers and the pre-reading, post-reading, and speed-reading activities which are stored
as a database in a server, applying the concept of e-learning. Since this program is in the process of production, positive
questions and comments are welcome.

発中のプログラムについて解説します。現場の先生方からの建 設的な質問やコメントなど歓迎します。
