    本研究の目的は,農学系大学生の L2 リスニングと L2 リーディングにおけるメタ認知ストラテジー使用の実態を把握することであった。調査は,MALQ (Metacognitive Awareness Listening Questionnaire)と MARSI (Metacognitive Awareness of Reading Strategies Inventory)を使用して行われた。MALQ とMARSI から得られたデータをマン・ホイットニー検定によって分析した。分析結果によると,L2 リスニングでは,5 項目において上位群と下位群の間で有意差が認められた。また,L2 リーディングでは,12 項目において上位群と下位群の間で有意差が認められた。メタ認知リスニング・ストラテジーの中では,計画・評価ストラテジーの使用が少なかった。同様に,メタ認知リーディング・ストラテジーにおいても,両群において上位群及び下位群の分析・評価ストラテジー使用は少なかった。例えば,「テクストに提示された情報を注意深く分析し評価する」や「テクスト内で答えたい問題について自問自答する」などのストラテジーであった。これらのストラテジーは繰り返し指導し,定着を図りたい。英語の授業でメタ認知リスニング及びメタ認知リーディングの指導を通して,学生の方略的能力が育成されるであろう。The aim of this study was to recognize agricultural students’ use of metacognitive strategies in L2 listening and L2 reading activities. The survey was conducted using MALQ (Metacognitive Awareness Listening Questionnaire) and MARSI (Metacognitive Awareness of Reading Strategies Inventory). Mann-Whitney U Test was conducted based on data collected from two questionnaires, MALQ and MARSI. The results of these analyses showed that there were 5 items that significantly differed between the high proficiency group and the low proficiency group in the L2 listening questionnaire, and there were 12 items that were significantly different in the L2 reading questionnaire. Strategies that belonged to the planning-evaluation category were less often used among metacognitive listening strategies. Similarly, students from both the higher proficiency group and lower proficiency group had a lower use of analysis and evaluation strategies in the metacognitive reading strategies. Examples included “I critically analyze and evaluate the information presented in the text,” and “I ask myself questions I like to have answered in the text.” These strategies should be taught in a repetitive manner in order to gain mastery of them. Students’ strategic competence will be developed through the instruction of metacognitive listening and reading strategies in their English classes.E1P論文Articl

    This study aimed to investigate the effect of fresh and residual biochar on the physiological attributes and quality of wheat grain. The research trial was conducted in the field applied with fresh biochar (S1), one-season-old residual biochar (S2), and two-season-old residual biochar (S3). The treatments include T1 (absolute control), T2 (100% RDF), T3 (100% NP), T4 (NP + rice husk biochar 5 t/ha), T5 (NP + rice husk biochar 10 t/ha), T6 (NP + rice husk biochar 15 t/ha), T7 (NP + rice straw biochar 5 t/ha), T8 (NP + rice straw biochar 10 t/ha), and T9 (NP + rice straw biochar 15 t/ha). A significant impact of fresh biochar application (S1) over one-season-old biochar (S2) and two-season-old biochar (S3) was recorded. In S1, the application of biochar at a rate of 5 t/ha (T4 and T7) showed enhanced chlorophyll index (+17.3%), relative water content (RWC) (+9.6%), membrane injury index (MII) (+8.1%) along with the carbohydrate (+12.7%), and protein content (+49.9%) in wheat grains. In one-season-old biochar (S2), as compared to the control, a notable improvement in the chlorophyll index (+13.8%), MII (+7.2%), membrane stability index (+27.1%), carbohydrate (+5.9%), and protein content (+32.3%) of wheat grains in treatment no. T5 & T8 (i.e. 10 t/ha). While in two-season-old biochar (S3), the treatment no. T6 & T9 (i.e., 15 tons/ha) had a significant impact on chlorophyll index (+7.2%), RWC (+4%), MII (+3.6%), membrane stability index (+12.5%), as well as the carbohydrate (+2.7%) and protein content (+10.2%) of wheat grains
