This exploratory classroom-based study examined changes in Japanese STEM undergraduates’ pragmatic awareness and production following a two-week intervention involving explicit pragmatics instruction on English suggestions. The instruction was integrated into a first-year English course incorporating project-based learning (PBL). Thirteen first-year pre-intermediate learners completed written discourse completion tasks (DCTs) before and after the instruction. Additional qualitative data were collected from a recorded peer-feedback interaction embedded in the project and from learners’ post-task reflections. The instructional sequence, adapted from Roever (2022), included noticing of model expressions, metapragmatic discussion of directness and mitigation, and guided practice leading to a semi-authentic peer feedback task. DCT scores increased from pre- to post-instruction. Qualitative analyses further revealed that learners broadened their repertoire beyond formulaic direct expressions to include conventionally indirect and mitigated forms (e.g., “How about …” and “Maybe you could …”), as well as supportive strategies such as reason-giving and collaborative repair. However, learners reported difficulty using indirect forms in real time due to limited formulaic resources and cognitive load. Overall, the findings suggest that integrating explicit pragmatics instruction into a context-rich PBL course can support learners’ production of suggestions and expand their repertoire of pragmatically appropriate forms.

本研究は、教室実践に基づく探索的研究として、日本の理工系学部生を対象に、英語の提案 表現に関する明示的語用指導を含む2 週間の介入を通して、語用的気づきおよび産出の変化 を検討したものである。本指導は、プロジェクト型学習(Project-Based Learning: PBL)を取 り入れた1 年次英語科目の一部として実施された。参加者は初中級レベルの1 年生13 名であ り、指導の前後に筆記式談話完成課題(DCT)に取り組んだ。さらに、プロジェクト内で行 われたピア・フィードバック場面の録音データおよび学習者の課題後リフレクションから、 補足的な質的データを収集した。指導はRoever(2022)に基づいて設計され、モデル表現へ の気づき、直接性および緩和に関するメタ語用論的な話し合い、さらに擬似的なピア・フィ ードバック課題へとつながるガイド付き練習から構成された。DCTスコアは指導前から指導 後にかけて向上した。さらに質的分析から、学習者は定型的で直接的な表現にとどまらず、 慣習的に間接的な表現や緩和された提案形式(例:「How about …?」や「Maybe you could …」)を用いるようになり、理由づけや協働的修復といった支援的方略も取り入れているこ とが明らかになった。一方で、学習者は間接的な形式をリアルタイムで用いることに困難を 感じており、その要因として定型表現のレパートリーの不足および認知的負荷が挙げられた。 総じて、本研究の結果は、文脈に富んだPBL 型授業に明示的な語用論指導を組み込むこと が、学習者の提案表現の産出を支援し、語用的に適切な表現形式のレパートリーを広げる可 能性を示唆している。
