Though research has been done to investigate the reasons for the development of the movement, there has not been any research into the development of LAM from the viewpoint of other researchers outside the UK, particularly the Japanese. The study explores the origin of language awareness (LA), its development, and present language education in the UK, stressing the significance of this movement. It reveals that this voluntary movement to make secondary school pupils aware of the role of the nature of language and its role in human life resulted from social change in the 70's, the less centralised independent language policy before the establishment of the National Curriculum, and the tradition of language education from the days of the Newbolt Report. Considering the development of the LAM, I argue that this movement suggests strongly that language education in Japan, including foreign languages and mother tongue, should be reconsidered.}, pages = {1--30}, title = {A study of the language awareness movement in the UK}, volume = {54}, year = {2003}, yomi = {イイダ, ツヨシ} }
