- This longer-form output (246 pages) presents a multi-modal study using an extensive amount of video analysis; Thomas collected data from 25 EFL students in a Japanese university. One of the central themes, project-based language teaching, is explored through the analysis of two distinct projects: the Podcast Project (Chapter 5) and the Virtual World Project (Chapter 6). Thomas also deals with the evolution of new technologies (Chapter 3) and developments around language education in Japan (Chapter 4). Thomas offers further context by way of a substantial theoretical discussion of task-based and project-based language teaching (Chapter 2).
