■What is NINJAL-LWP for TWC?

NINJAL-LWP for TWC (NLT) is a tool for searching the Tsukuba Web Corpus (TWC), a corpus of approximately 1.1 billion words collected from Japanese-language websites. The search function is based on the use of NINJAL-LWP (NINJAL-LagoWordProfiler), a corpus search system developed jointly by the National Institute for Japanese Language and Linguistics (NINJAL) and Lago Institute of Language. Among tools that utilize the same system is NINJAL-LWP for the BCCWJ (NLB), a tool for searching the 100-million-word Balanced Corpus of Contemporary Written Japanese (BCCWJ), which was developed by NINJAL.

This tool uses a method known as lexical profiling to comprehensively indicate the co-occurrence relations and grammatical behavior of nouns, verbs, and other content words.

本センターでは外国につながる子どもたちのための教材を開発し、ウェブサイトで無料提供しています。

お知らせ

これまでの外国につながる子どもたちのための教材からのお知らせ

趣旨

2016（平成28）年の文部科学省の調査によれば、公立学校に在籍している外国人児童生徒80,119人のうち日本語指導を必要としている子どもは34,335人と4割を越えています。しかし実際には日本語指導を必要としている子どもたちはこの数字をはるかに上回ると言われています。
こうした子どもたちは日本語理解に苦労しながら日々の勉強に取り組んでいます。少しでも子どもたちの学習の助けになるよう、やさしい日本語や母語での説明、イラストを豊富に活用した教材を開発し、無償で提供しています。
なおこの教材は、2006年～2008年に実施した三井物産との共同事業「在日ブラジル人児童のための教材開発」によりポルトガル語版を作成し、それをもとにその後、本学がフィリピン（タガログ）語、スペイン語、ベトナム語、タイ語に翻訳し多言語化したものです。

特徴

無料でダウンロードして自由に使用できる教材です。

全国どこからでも教材が入手できるようウェブサイトで教材を提供しています。著作権は本学に帰属致しますが、著作権法に違反しない範囲で現場の状況に合わせて利用する、コピーを取る等ご自由にお使いください。

アンケートにご協力をお願いいたします

本教材のより良い活用方法等を探る参考としたいため、アンケートへのご協力をお願いいたします。回答は"任意"です（回答がない場合、ダウンロードができないということではございません）。皆様のご意見を是非お聞かせください。回答いただける場合は以下のURLよりお願いいたします。
アンケートはこちら（日本語）
多言語に対応した教材です。

教材の内容は「算数」と「漢字」ですが、それぞれ子どもたちの母語である外国語を必要なところに使っています。現在、ポルトガル語、フィリピン（タガログ）語、スペイン語、ベトナム語、タイ語を用いた教材が利用可能です（ベトナム語、タイ語は漢字教材のみ）。

ダウンロードして自由に使える教材
※本教材を印刷して販売することは固く禁じます。

O Centro de Educação e Pesquisa Multilinguísticas e Multiculturais da Universidade de Estudos Estrangeiros de Tóquio tem promovido várias atividades a fim de contribuir para a solução de problemas que uma sociedade multilinguística e multicultural apresenta, envolvendo 3 áreas, ou seja, a educação , a pesquisa e a colaboração da sociedade.
Uma das atividades, realizada com a colaboração da sociedade, foi o "Projeto de elaboração do Material Didático para os alunos brasileiros que residem no Japão", desenvolvido com o apoio da empresa Mitsui & Co. LTD., entre setembro de 2006 e março de 2009. Neste projeto, elaborou-se o material didático de matemática (adição-subtração, multiplicação, divisão e fração) e o material didático de kanjis (ensinados na 1ª, 2ª e 3ªséries do ensino fundamental) para alunos brasileiros que frequentam a escola pública, disponibilizando-os na internet, para poderem ser baixados gratuitamente.
O Centro tem recebido muitas informações mostrando que estes materiais, além de estarem sendo utilizados nas escolas públicas, estão sendo aproveitados em outros locais de ensino e também estão sendo utilizados por brasileiros adultos para estudarem por si mesmos, sem professor.
Então, desta vez, para facilitar ainda mais o estudo sem professor, acrescentou-se ao Material de Kanji acima citado, novas traduções, exercícios, testes com respostas, apresentando-o neste site:

The Tachibanas are the quintessential Japanese family, unassuming and infinitely relatable. There's Mother, who isn't the best cook and is quite lazy, and Father, who always leaves the bathroom door ajar. The high school daughter Mikan seems a bit of a buffoon, and the middle schooler son Yuzuhiko appears to be quite the cold fish at first glance.
