Description
U.S. studies on the use of name tents to encourage students to learn each other’s names have suggested that one of the related benefits is that students knowing individual class members’ names can lead to enhanced opportunities for meaningful interaction outside of the classroom. These opportunities can be advantageous for positive social and educational development. This study explores whether the same benefits are apparent for students who have learnt each other’s names through mnemonic activities in EFL lessons at a Japanese university.
