Realizing Daisaku Ikeda's Educational Philosophy Through Language Learning and Study Abroad: A Critical Instrumental Case Study

摘要

This article focuses in two ways on Daisaku Ikeda (b. 1928) and language and culture education. First, the author excerpts Ikeda's translated and lesser-known Japanese speeches to explicate his view of world language learning and cultural exchange as curricular components of a broader educational philosophy for becoming “fully human.” Second, the author presents findings from a critical instrumental case study that used ethnographic and discourse analytic methods to examine how students realize Ikeda's philosophy through their language learning and study abroad experiences.View full textDownload full textRelated var addthis_config = { ui_cobrand: "Taylor & Francis Online", services_compact: "citeulike,netvibes,twitter,technorati,delicious,linkedin,facebook,stumbleupon,digg,google,more", pubid: "ra-4dff56cd6bb1830b" }; Add to shortlist Link Permalink http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/15427587.2012.648065
