“This book brings together a set of very important chapters on STEM education in Japan, written by people with first-hand experience of working in the area. Topics range from Japanese STEM workplaces through to university education. Other areas of focus include innovations in Japanese STEM education, student motivation and engagement. An outstanding volume!” -Brian Paltridge, Professor of TESOL, University of Sydney, Australia “As an engineer-turned language teacher and translator, I’m privileged to recommend this book not only as a laborious compilation of recent research on STEM English in Japan but also, more importantly, as an eye-opening, thought-provoking book full of insights into what is going on in the Japanese ESP educational community amid the increasing pressure for globalization and how language teachers and administrators can work together to help STEM students grow into internationally competent professionals.” -Michihiro Hirai, President, Hirai Language Services Inc., Japan This book focuses on Japanese science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) students and their experiences of learning English. Students majoring in STEM face unique circumstances regarding their English language education. Despite the global use of English in these fields, the authors argue that Japanese STEM students fail to take advantage of coursework, extracurricular materials, teachers, peers, and other resources to raise their communicative abilities to a sufficient level for the workplace. This book offers insights into how STEM students can learn English more effectively and purposefully. The chapters provide firsthand perspectives into the psychologies, educational programs, and future workplace situations of Japanese STEM students, who are the innovators, inventors, and researchers of the future. This book will appeal to applied linguists and language teachers wherever STEM English is taught.
